Abstract: Background: The use of a single inhaler to administer a dry powder formulation of fluticasone (FP) and salmeterol (SM) is at least as effective as concurrent administration of the mono-components from individual dry powder inhalers. Whether the same applies to the pressurised metered dose inhaled (pMDI) formulation of these products which, unlike the dry powder formulations are not breath-actuated, has not been established.
