TRELEGY ELLIPTA (fluticasone furoate)

Respiratory Approved 2017-09-18

TRELEGY ELLIPTA is a combination inhalation therapy consisting of an inhaled corticosteroid, an anticholinergic, and a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist. It is indicated for the maintenance treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and for the maintenance treatment of asthma in adults aged 18 years and older. This medication is intended for daily maintenance and is not indicated for the relief of acute bronchospasm.

How TRELEGY ELLIPTA Works

The medication employs three distinct mechanisms to address respiratory conditions. Fluticasone furoate is a corticosteroid that provides anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting multiple cell types and mediators involved in airway inflammation. Umeclidinium acts as a long-acting muscarinic antagonist that inhibits M3 receptors at the smooth muscle to induce bronchodilation. Vilanterol completes the combination as a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist.
