Fluticasone propionate HFA is an authorized generic <\/span>inhaled corticosteroid<\/span><\/a> (ICS) that reduces the frequency of <\/span>asthma<\/span><\/a> attacks and reduces the risk of a severe exacerbation. Most people recognize fluticasone propionate HFA by its former but discontinued brand name, Flovent. Fluticasone is a <\/span>corticosteroid<\/span><\/a> that reduces airway swelling, but it takes days or weeks of daily dosing to have a significant effect. The potential improvement with an inhaled corticosteroid is not always realized, so an alternative <\/span>asthma maintenance treatment<\/span><\/a> may be necessary. A list of your options will be presented here, and some top choices will be pointed out.<\/span><\/p>\n

What can I take instead of Flovent HFA?<\/span><\/h2>\n

As an asthma maintenance therapy, daily doses of fluticasone propionate HFA help reduce airway swelling and prevent asthma attacks in people diagnosed with persistent asthma. Other types of medications may be added if an inhaled corticosteroid doesn\u2019t work well enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

If using a metered-dose inhaler is a problem, a healthcare provider might recommend using a spacer, switching to a powder form, like <\/span>fluticasone Diskus<\/span><\/a>, or prescribe a nebulized corticosteroid, like <\/span>Pulmicort Respules<\/span><\/a> (budesonide). Switching to an oral corticosteroid is also an option, but there’s a risk of experiencing more side effects.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If fluticasone treatment is insufficient at controlling asthma symptoms, one alternative is to switch to a different inhaled corticosteroid, like budesonide or mometasone. For some patients, an inhaled steroid alone is not effective. In these instances, an inhaled <\/span>long-acting beta agonist<\/span><\/a> (LABA), such as formoterol, or a <\/span>long-acting muscarinic antagonist<\/span><\/a> (LAMA), such as umeclidinium, may be added to the steroid regimen. These drugs can be combined into single-aerosol or powder inhalers to make dosing easier, such as <\/span>Symbicort<\/span><\/a> (budesonide-formoterol) or <\/span>Trelegy Ellipta<\/span><\/a> (fluticasone-vilanterol-umeclidinium). They can also be prescribed separately if they are causing side effects or allergies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, <\/span>leukotriene receptor antagonists<\/span><\/a> (LRAs), such as montelukast, are oral asthma control medications. They can be taken alone for mild persistent asthma or combined with inhaled medications for more effective asthma maintenance therapy.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Top 5 Flovent HFA alternatives<\/span><\/h2>\n

The following are some of the most common alternatives to Flovent HFA.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Fluticasone Diskus<\/span><\/h3>\n

If getting the correct dose is a problem with fluticasone HFA, the problem may be with the delivery mechanism. Fluticasone HFA is a traditional aerosol inhaler, and proper use requires coordinating device actuation with a deep inhalation. A dry powder inhaler, like fluticasone Diskus, requires only a quick inhalation without operating the device, but the inhalation must be sufficiently forceful to deliver the medication to the bronchial tubes or main airways of the lungs. One downside is that the dry powder formulation can contain milk proteins, so people with a severe milk protein allergy may not be able to use it.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Pulmicort Respules<\/span><\/h3>\n

Changing to a different corticosteroid may improve asthma control or resolve troublesome side effects. Alternatives include budesonide, mometasone, beclomethasone, and ciclesonide.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Like fluticasone, budesonide is a commonly used inhaled corticosteroid. The brand-name version is Pulmicort. This drug comes as a dry powder inhaler (Pulmicort Flexhaler) or a nebulizer version (Pulmicort Respules). Switching to a nebulizer can help people who are not getting the proper doses with an aerosol or dry powder inhaler. A nebulizer machine aerosolizes liquid medicine, and the user inhales the aerosol. It\u2019s very easy to get right, so the product is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in young children.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Symbicort<\/span><\/h3>\n

Sometimes, people need an inhaled corticosteroid and a long-acting bronchodilator (LABA) like formoterol, vilanterol, or salmeterol. The LABA relaxes airway muscles and reduces airway constriction during an asthma attack. Patients can buy two inhalers, one for the steroid and one for the LABA. Better yet, many products combine the steroid and the LABA in one product. Symbicort (budesonide-formoterol) is one of the most commonly used versions. Other dual asthma inhalers include Advair, Breo Ellipta, and Dulera.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Trelegy Ellipta<\/span><\/h3>\n

Going another step further in intensity of asthma treatment, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) can be added to steroid and LABA treatment. LAMAs (also called inhaled anticholinergic drugs) are another type of <\/span>bronchodilator<\/span><\/a> that relaxes airway muscles to improve airflow. Again, patients can purchase each of these drugs separately, but it\u2019s more convenient to take all three from a single inhaler, like Trelegy Ellipta. Keep in mind that more drugs mean more potential side effects. To name a few, ICSs can increase your risk of thrush and cataracts; LABAs can trigger palpitations; and LAMAs can lead to urinary difficulties.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Singulair<\/span><\/h3>\n

Singulair can be added to fluticasone HFA therapy or used alone to avoid corticosteroid side effects. Its active ingredient, montelukast, is a leukotriene receptor antagonist. It works by preventing airway inflammation, but it uses a different mechanism of action than steroids. The benefit is that it comes as oral tablets, which is <\/span>particularly helpful when dosing children<\/span><\/a>. Additionally, it doesn\u2019t cause many of the clinical problems associated with long-term corticosteroid use, like thrush or growth suppression. Although rare, it can cause psychiatric problems like depression, insomnia, aggression, or suicidal thoughts. The nice thing about Singulair is that it\u2019s FDA-approved to treat allergies, a health condition that often coexists with asthma. Other LRAs that treat asthma include <\/span>Accolate<\/span><\/a> (<\/span>zafirlukast<\/span><\/a>) and Zyflo (<\/span>zileuton<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

Fluticasone HFA over-the-counter alternatives<\/span><\/h2>\n

There are no over-the-counter drugs that can provide effective maintenance treatment for persistent asthma. <\/span>Over-the-counter asthma inhalers<\/span><\/a> or nebulizers containing epinephrine (<\/span>Primatene <\/span><\/a>Mist or <\/span>Asthmanefrin<\/span><\/a>) should be used only for mild asthma symptoms. However, healthcare providers discourage their use due to the risk of serious side effects and overuse. Prescription drugs like <\/span>albuterol inhalers<\/span><\/a> are safer and more effective.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over-the-counter supplements may be another matter. While they can\u2019t replace asthma maintenance treatment, <\/span>antioxidants<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>omega-3 fatty acids<\/span><\/a> are getting some attention as dietary supplements that could help airway inflammation, but the jury is still out on whether they are effective. Likewise, <\/span>herbal remedies<\/span><\/a> require further clinical trials.<\/span><\/p>\n

Natural alternatives to Flovent HFA<\/span><\/h2>\n

Asthma management does not need to rely solely on prescription drugs. Studies have repeatedly shown that a <\/span>healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight loss<\/span><\/a> are valuable for achieving optimal asthma control. <\/span>Smoking cessation<\/span><\/a> should also be on the list of <\/span>lifestyle modifications<\/span><\/a> with great potential benefit for asthma management.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How to switch to a Flovent HFA alternative<\/span><\/h2>\n

Being unhindered by your asthma should be a goal that you share with your healthcare provider. Together, you both can share thoughts on why Flovent HFA may or may not be the best choice for asthma maintenance. Alternatives can be vetted in the context of your other health conditions, your lifestyle, your other prescriptions, and <\/span>cost<\/span><\/a>. Through this careful analysis and discussion, you can get the best medical advice on what to do moving forward with the care of your asthma.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choosing the right path for asthma treatment<\/span><\/h2>\n

Asthma maintenance treatment does more than prevent asthma attacks and reduce the risk of serious exacerbations. The treatment also significantly improves your quality of life and your ability to be active. For this reason, the right path for asthma treatment starts with your healthcare provider. Together, you and your provider will set goals to maximize treatment effectiveness and minimize drug-related side effects.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Inhaled corticosteroids are often the starting point, and ICS treatment often hits that right balance between effectiveness and drug-induced problems. When that balance isn\u2019t achieved, the healthcare provider typically adds other medications to the regimen. These added medications will improve asthma, but may start causing other problems. Just as at the start of therapy, staying on the right path for asthma treatment involves consulting your healthcare provider until you achieve the right balance between effectiveness and side effects.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
