Product Details
- Trelegy Ellipta 100/62.5/25 mcg is a prescription inhalation powder used once daily for long-term maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma in adults.
- The inhaler combines fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, and vilanterol in a single Ellipta device to help improve breathing and reduce symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
- This 100/62.5/25 mcg strength is the only Trelegy strength approved for COPD and is supplied as a 30-dose inhaler with an integrated dose counter.
- Trelegy Ellipta is not intended to relieve sudden breathing problems and does not replace a fast-acting rescue inhaler.
