Fluticasone Propionate Diskus Inhaler is an inhaled corticosteroid used as maintenance or controller treatment for asthma. Inhaled corticosteroids, such as fluticasone, are the most effective anti-inflammatory medications for asthma. Inhaled corticosteroids reduce asthma symptoms, increase lung function, reduce airway hyperresponsiveness, improve quality of life, and reduce risk of asthma-related exacerbations or hospitalizations. The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) endorses using inhaled fluticasone for asthma.

Medication Description
Fluticasone Propionate Diskus Inhaler is a maintenance inhaler prescribed to help manage asthma symptoms and prevent future flare-ups. It belongs to a class of medications called inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), which are considered a first-line therapy for asthma control. Fluticasone works by reducing airway inflammation, improving breathing function, and decreasing airway sensitivity to triggers.
Unlike oral steroids, fluticasone inhalation delivers medication directly to the lungs, lowering the risk of systemic side effects. It is often used daily, even when no symptoms are present, to obtain optimal effectiveness.
How To Use:
Use at the same time every day
Rinse mouth thoroughly with water (do not swallow) after each use
Not a rescue inhaler; not intended for sudden shortness of breath
The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) supports ICS use like fluticasone as a cornerstone of asthma care.
