Saltica Inhaler combines Salmeterol 25 mcg and Fluticasone Propionate 250 mcg per puff, providing a dual-action therapy for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

• Salmeterol is a long-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist (LABA) that relaxes airway smooth muscles, offering extended bronchodilation to prevent bronchospasm.

• Fluticasone Propionate is an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) that reduces airway inflammation, swelling, and mucus production, helping to control chronic symptoms and prevent asthma attacks.

This combination ensures both rapid and long-term management of obstructive airway diseases, improving breathing, reducing flare-ups, and enhancing patient quality of life.
