About Flohale-100 Rotacap

Flohale-100 Rotacap belongs to the class of corticosteroid medication primarily used to prevent and treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms. Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes).

Flohale-100 Rotacap contains fluticasone. It calms the immune system and reduces swelling in the lungs. Thereby making it easier to breathe. Thus, Flohale-100 Rotacap provides relief from symptoms such as shortness of breath or wheezing (whistling sound while breathing).

Flohale-100 Rotacap is for inhalation only. Your doctor will recommend how often you need to use Flohale-100 Rotacap based on your medical condition.

FLUTICASONE-100MCGOther diseases of liver
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Flohale-100 Rotacap:
Corticosteroids are primarily eliminated by hepatic metabolism, hence liver dysfunction may cause them to accumulate. Hepatic disease patients need to be closely watched.

How to manage the interaction:
Liver disease patients using Flohale-100 Rotacap should be monitored closely.
FLUTICASONE-100MCGCushing syndrome
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Flohale-100 Rotacap:
Rarely, the use of nasal and inhaled corticosteroids may cause hyperadrenocorticism or worsen its symptoms. Corticosteroid side effects can be lessened by administering them locally rather than systemically, although the dangers are still present. Drugs that are applied topically or inhaled may enter the bloodstream, especially when high concentrations are utilised. It is crucial that the lowest effective dosage be used and that the recommended dosages of the various products not be exceeded. During inhaled or nasal corticosteroid medication, the emergence of symptoms such irregular menstruation, acneiform lesions, cataracts, and cushingoid features may signify overuse.

How to manage the interaction:
The use of inhaled and nasal corticosteroids such as Flohale-100 Rotacap may rarely precipitate or aggravate conditions of hyperadrenocorticism. Hence, you are advised not to use more than the recommended dosages.
FLUTICASONE-100MCGGlaucoma
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Flohale-100 Rotacap:
In patients with ocular herpes simplex, pharmacologic doses of corticosteroids may raise the risk of corneal perforation. In such patients, corticosteroid therapy should be delivered with caution, both orally and inhalation.

How to manage the interaction:
Inhaled and nasal Flohale-100 Rotacap should be used with caution in patients with ocular herpes simplex (a type of viral eye infection).
FLUTICASONE-100MCGOsteoporosis without pathological fracture

Patients getting lesser dosages have also been shown to have lower levels of total body calcium. Patients with osteoporosis should be treated with inhaled and nasal corticosteroids over the long term with caution. It is crucial that the lowest effective dosage be used and that the recommended dosages of the various products not be exceeded.

How to manage the interaction:
