Dosage
The concentration of Flovent® varies according to the dose of Advair prescribed (Advair® 100, 250 and 500 µg). The dose of the long-acting bronchodilator Serevent® remains unchanged at 50 µg. Never exceed the prescribed dose.
Side Effects
The side effects are the same as for Serevent® and Flovent® taken alone. Rinse your mouth after using Advair®.
