Overview
Relvar Ellipta Inhaler is a prescription medication used to manage asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains fluticasone furoate, an inhaled corticosteroid, and vilanterol, a long-acting bronchodilator. Together, these ingredients help reduce lung inflammation and improve airflow, making breathing easier. It is intended for long-term control of symptoms rather than for sudden breathing difficulties.
Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question? We're here to help
How quickly does the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler start working?
The Relvar Ellipta Inhaler begins reducing airway inflammation shortly after use, but its full effect builds over several days of consistent treatment. It is designed for long-term symptom control rather than rapid relief. Users may notice easier breathing and fewer flare-ups once the medication becomes established in their system with daily use.
Is the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler suitable for long-term treatment?
The Relvar Ellipta Inhaler is intended for long-term management of asthma and COPD when taken as prescribed. Its once-daily dosing makes it convenient for ongoing use. Regular reviews with a healthcare professional ensure the dose remains appropriate and that symptoms are well controlled over time.
Can I use the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler if I smoke?
People who smoke can still use the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler, but smoking may reduce the medication’s overall effectiveness and worsen respiratory conditions. Quitting smoking is strongly recommended for improved lung health. The inhaler will still help manage symptoms, but stopping smoking provides the greatest long-term benefit.
Can I travel with my Relvar Ellipta Inhaler?
Yes, the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler is safe and easy to travel with due to its compact, sealed design. Keep it in your hand luggage and protect it from extreme temperatures during trips.
What should I do if I miss a dose of my Relvar Ellipta Inhaler?
If you forget a dose of the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler, take it as soon as you remember unless it’s close to the time for your next dose. Do not double-dose to make up for a missed inhalation.
Does the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler affect exercise or physical activity?
Many users find their ability to exercise improves with regular use of the Relvar Ellipta Inhaler, as it helps reduce airway inflammation and maintain clearer breathing. While it is not an immediate-relief inhaler, better long-term control often leads to increased stamina and fewer activity-related symptoms
How do I store Relvar Ellipta Inhaler?

How do I dispose of Relvar Ellipta Inhaler?

How it works
Relvar Ellipta Inhaler combines two active medications: an inhaled corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and a bronchodilator that relaxes the airway muscles. This dual action helps keep airways open and prevents swelling, making breathing smoother and reducing day-to-day symptoms. Its once-daily formulation means it works continuously throughout the day and night to maintain stable respiratory control.

Warnings
