Product Introduction:
AirTec SF 100 Instacap is a pharmaceutical combination in the form of a dry powder inhaler, containing Salmeterol (50mcg) and Fluticasone Propionate (100mcg). This medication is specifically formulated for the comprehensive management of respiratory conditions, offering a dual-action approach to bronchodilation and anti-inflammatory control.
Your doctor will tell you how often you need to use your inhaler. The effect of this medicine may be noticeable after a few days but will only reach its maximum after a few weeks. This medicine must be used regularly to be effective, so go on taking it even if you don’t have any symptoms. That means it’s doing its job. If you stop taking it your asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) may get worse. It should not be used to relieve sudden asthma attacks. If an asthma attack occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler (reliever). To get the benefit from this medicine you need to make sure you get your inhaler technique right, otherwise, it does not work as well.
The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, respiratory tract infection, fungal infections in the mouth, headache, hoarseness of voice, sore throat, cough, musculoskeletal (bone, muscle, or joint) pain, and increased heart rate. If you get there, do not stop taking it but do talk to your doctor. You can help prevent some of these symptoms by rinsing your mouth and throat with water or brushing your teeth after using your inhaler. There are other, rarer side effects that can be serious. Talk to your doctor if you’re worried about them. In general, you should be trying to avoid situations that make your asthma worse (your triggers) and try not to smoke.
Ask your doctor whether it’s safe to take this medicine if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. Before taking it, you should tell your doctor if you have any kidney or liver diseases so that your doctor can prescribe a suitable dose for you.
Benefits:
- Bronchodilation: Salmeterol, a long-acting beta-agonist, promotes the relaxation of airway muscles, facilitating easier breathing by providing sustained bronchodilation.
- Anti-inflammatory Action: Fluticasone Propionate, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation in the airways, helping to prevent or alleviate symptoms associated with respiratory conditions.
- Combined Efficacy: The combination of Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate delivers a synergistic effect, addressing both bronchodilation and anti-inflammatory aspects for comprehensive respiratory care.
- Improved Symptom Control: AirTec SF 100 Instacap aims to enhance overall symptom control, providing relief from bronchoconstriction and inflammation.
Side Effects: While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects, including:
- Throat irritation
- Coughing
- Headache
- Nausea
- Hoarseness of voice
Serious side effects are rare but may include an increased heart rate. It’s important to seek medical attention if any unusual or severe side effects occur.
Usage Guidelines:
- Dosage: Use AirTec SF 100 Instacap as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
- Inhalation Technique: Proper inhalation technique is crucial for optimal drug delivery. Consult with your healthcare professional for guidance.
- Consistency: Adhere to a consistent dosing schedule to maintain the therapeutic effect.

Drug Interactions: AirTec SF 100 Instacap may interact with certain medications, including:
