Medical Overview
Seretide Diskus is listed as Respiratory containing Salmeterol + Fluticasone. A respiratory medicine used for allergy, asthma, or airway symptoms depending on dosage form.
Seretide (salmeterol/fluticasone) is the classic daily asthma/COPD preventer — 12-hour bronchodilation plus inhaled steroid. Cardinal rule: salmeterol is slow-onset, so Seretide is NEVER a rescue inhaler — always pair with a separate blue reliever. Rinse after every use; never stop on good days; watch the Diskus counter.
