FDA has not yet classified the drug into a specified pregnancy category.

Mode of Action

Salmeterol, a long acting beta 2-agonist which acts locally in the lung to mediate bronchodilation. Fluticasone, a corticosteroid with mainly glucocorticoid activity, reduce symptoms and exacerbations of asthma.

Interaction

Increased fluticasone levels with CYP 3A4 inhibitors e.g ritonavir, ketoconazole, itraconazole. Additive effects with other beta-agonist.

Pregnancy Category Note

Pregnancy There are no randomized clinical studies in pregnant women; in women with poorly or moderately controlled asthma, there is increased risk of several perinatal adverse outcomes such as pre-eclampsia in the mother and prematurity, low birth weight, and small for gestational age in the neonate; pregnant women with asthma should be closely monitored and medication adjusted as necessary to maintain optimal asthma control of asthma Labor and delivery There are no human studies evaluating effects of therapy during labor and delivery; because of potential for beta-agonist interference with uterine contractility, use of drug during labor should be restricted to those patients in whom benefits clearly outweigh the risks Lactation There are no available data on presence of fluticasone propionate or salmeterol in human milk, effects on breastfed child, or effects on milk production; other corticosteroids have been detected in human milk; however, fluticasone propionate and salmeterol concentrations in plasma after inhaled therapeutic doses are low and therefore concentrations in human breast milk are likely to be correspondingly low; developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with mother?s clinical need for therapy and any potential adverse effects on breastfed child from therapy or from underlying maternal condition Measurable levels of salmeterol and fluticasone detected in lactating rats treated with each drug
