AirDuo Digihaler Overview

AirDuo Digihaler is a prescription medicine used to control symptoms of asthma and to prevent symptoms such as wheezing in people 12 years of age and older. AirDuo Digihaler contains a built-in electronic module that records and stores information about inhaler events. AirDuo Digihaler may be used with, and transmits information to, an App through Bluetooth® wireless technology.

AirDuo Digihaler combines two medications: the inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) medicine fluticasone propionate and the LABA medicine salmeterol. Fluticasone propionate helps to decrease inflammation in the lungs. Inflammation in the lungs can lead to breathing problems. Salmeterol helps the muscles around the airways in your lungs stay relaxed to prevent symptoms, such as wheezing, cough, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. These symptoms can happen when the muscles around the airways tighten. This makes it hard to breathe.

This medication comes in an inhaler. Use 1 inhalation of AirDuo Digihaler 2 times each day. Use AirDuo Digihaler at the same time each day, about 12 hours apart.

Common side effects include upper respiratory tract infection, and thrush in the mouth or throat.
