Advair Diskus (fluticasone propionate) is a long-term approach to managing chronic breathing disorders such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The medication consists of a combination of corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and bronchodialators to widen airways.

A prescription is required to buy Advair Diskus.

Advair Diskus is not a rescue inhaler. A rescue inhaler may be used as needed while taking Advair Diskus.

Why Buy Advair Diskus?

Patients typically buy Advair Diskus as part of a long-term treatment plan to manage asthma or COPD. If used properly over time it can significantly reduce the symptoms of chronic breathing difficulty while improving overall lung function:

• Reduced use of rescue inhalers.
• Fewer asthma attacks.
• Improved lung function.
• Fewer breathing-related hospital visits.
• Greater independence and ability to function.

Taking Advair Diskus:

Advair Diskus is a disk-shaped inhaler containing a powder medication, which is inhaled into the lungs. It is available in a variety of dosage strengths, depending on the severity of the patient's breathing difficulty and other factors such as age or other medical conditions. A patient can only buy Advair Diskus in the dosage prescribed by a physician.

Advair Diskus is typically taken twice a day, every 12 hours, though physician instructions may vary. A missed dose should be taken as soon as it is remembered, unless it is near time for the next dose in which case it may be skipped.

Because it is a long-term approach to managing asthma or COPD, patients are often treated with Advair Diskus for months or years at a time. It is not unusual for the dosage strength to be adjusted multiple times during treatment according patient response to the medication.

Individuals taking Advair Diskus may or may not feel or taste the powdered medication. Mouthwash should be used after every dose to eliminate any residual medication in the mouth and prevent certain potential side effects.
