Combination Medications

Combination medications are a new group of medications that combine a corticosteroid preventer medication and a symptoms controller medication in the one device. Currently there are two types available:

  • Seretide (purple coloured medication) contains Flixotide as the preventer and Serevent as the symptom controller
  • Symbicort (red and white coloured medication) contains Pulmicort as the preventer and Oxis as the symptom controller.
