If you use an inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist to manage your asthma, ask your doctor about Breo Ellipta. Breo Ellipta is a 2-in-1 medication that helps manage asthma that contains both ingredients. You'll use this inhaler once a day to manage and prevent asthma flare-ups. The medications in the inhaler can help treat airflow obstruction. But since Breo Ellipta won't treat a sudden flare-up, you'll still need to carry a rescue inhaler.
