Seroflo 500mcg Rotacaps 30’s

Seroflo 500mcg Rotacaps is a combination medication used to manage asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid that reduces lung inflammation, and Salmeterol, a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) that helps keep airways open for easier breathing.

This dual-action formula provides long-term control of respiratory conditions, helping to prevent asthma attacks and improve lung function in COPD patients.
