Saltica Inhalation Capsule combines Salmeterol 50 mcg and Fluticasone Propionate 250 mcg, providing a dual-action therapy for the management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

• Salmeterol is a long-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist (LABA) that relaxes airway smooth muscles, ensuring prolonged bronchodilation and prevention of bronchospasm.

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

These inhalation capsules are designed for use with a dry powder inhaler (DPI), delivering medication directly to the lungs for fast, targeted, and effective relief.
