Breo Ellipta is an inhaled medication used to treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains two medications to help breathing: a corticosteroid (which reduces inflammation in the airways and makes them less likely to spasm), and a long-acting bronchodilator (which relaxes the airways). Breo Ellipta comes as a dry powder inhaler that you use once a day. It comes in two different strengths, called 100/25 or 200/25.
Breo Ellipta is meant to be used daily to control asthma or COPD symptoms, such as wheezing, cough, chest tightness and shortness of breath, and to prevent flare-ups. It’s not a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. It’s approved only for adults age 18 and older.
