Arnuity Ellipta How to Take

Fluticasone belongs to the class of medications called inhaled corticosteroids, which reduce symptoms and prevent Asthma attacks by decreasing inflammation in the lungs and thereby opening the airways. When used regularly every day, inhaled fluticasone decreases the number and severity of asthma attacks. It may take up to 2 weeks to see a maximum effectiveness of Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh).

It will not relieve an asthma attack that has already started. Inhalers that contain "reliever" medications with fast action (e.g., salbutamol, terbutaline) will still be needed while using Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh).

Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh) may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh) may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here. As well, some forms of Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh) may not be used for all of the conditions discussed here.

Your doctor may have suggested Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh) for conditions other than those listed in these drug information articles. If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh), speak to your doctor. Do not stop taking Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh) without consulting your doctor.

Arnuity Ellipta Dosage

The recommended dose is one inhalation of 100 µg or 200 µg once daily. Your doctor will determine your dose is based on how severe your asthma is.

If your doctor has asked you to use a "reliever" inhaler such as salbutamol or terbutaline with your fluticasone inhaler, you should use the reliever inhaler first, wait several minutes, and then use the fluticasone inhaler.

After inhaling the dose of medication, rinse your mouth with water and spit it out, to reduce the chances of developing thrush (yeast infection of the mouth or throat). If you have dentures, they should be cleaned after each dose.

Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.

It is important to take Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh) exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Read the package insert or speak with your pharmacist for instructions on using the medication dispenser properly.

If you miss a dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Infection: Arnuity Ellipta (Fluticasone-furoate-inh), like other corticosteroids, may prevent you from noticing the early signs of a serious infection.
