Fluticasone, umeclidinium, and vilanterol Inhalation and Prezcobix

• Generic Name: fluticasone / umeclidinium / vilanterol
• Dosage Forms: n.a.
• Other Brand Names: Trelegy Ellipta

Fluticasone, umeclidinium, and vilanterol combination is used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It is used long term to improve breathing problems and to reduce the number of COPD flare-ups (worsening of your COPD symptoms for several days). Fluticasone, umeclidinium, and vilanterol will not relieve a COPD attack that has already started.

Inhaled fluticasone belongs to the family of medicines known as corticosteroids or steroids (cortisone-like medicines). It works by preventing certain cells in the lungs and breathing passages from releasing substances that cause COPD symptoms.

Inhaled umeclidinium and vilanterol are long-acting bronchodilators. These are medicines that are breathed in through the mouth to open up the bronchial tubes (air passages) in the lungs. They relieve cough, wheezing, shortness of breath, and troubled breathing by increasing the flow of air through the bronchial tubes.

Fluticasone, umeclidinium, and vilanterol is available only with your doctor's prescription.

• Generic Name: cobicistat / darunavir
• Dosage Forms: tablet, film coated
• Other Brand Names: Prezcobix

Prezcobix contains a combination of darunavir and cobicistat. Darunavir is an antiviral medicine that prevents human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from multiplying in your body. Cobicistat reduces the action of enzymes in your liver that break down certain antiviral medicines. This allows the antiviral medicines to be used more safely and effectively at lower doses.

Prezcobix is a combination medicine given together with other antiviral medicines to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in adults, the virus that can cause acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Prezcobix is not a cure for HIV or AIDS.
