What is Serevent Diskus?

Serevent Diskus is an FDA-approved, long-term, maintenance treatment to prevent or decrease symptoms caused by asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. This prescription drug is approved to treat asthma in combination with another inhaled asthma treatment called an inhaled corticosteroid. It can also be used to prevent bronchospasm brought on by exercise. Salmeterol, the active ingredient in Serevent Diskus, works by relaxing smooth muscles in the airways to help open the air passages and improve breathing.

Serevent Diskus is a bronchodilator that is further classified as a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA). This drug is used as a maintenance treatment and should not be used for sudden asthma or COPD attacks. Your doctor will often prescribe a quick-relief inhaler like albuterol for acute problems with breathing.

In children and teenagers who need to use salmeterol to treat their asthma, it is recommended that they use a combination of salmeterol and fluticasone products. Consult with your pediatrician for medical advice regarding the right medicine for your child.
