How does Wixela Inhub (fluticasone / salmeterol) work?

Wixela Inhub (fluticasone / salmeterol) is a combination of two medications that work together to help treat asthma and COPD symptoms.

Fluticasone is an inhaled corticosteroid. The exact way that it works to treat asthma isn't well-understood. But it's thought to work directly in your lungs to lower inflammation and swelling, thus making it easier for you to breathe.
Salmeterol is a long-acting beta agonist. It works by relaxing the muscles in your lungs to open up your airways, making it easier to breathe.
