Hello,

COMING TO EACH DRUG YOU HAVE MENTIONED:

1) SALMETROL is a long-acting beta2 agonist (that is in short LABA)

2) FLUTICASONE is an inhalation corticosteroid (That is ICS in short)

3)ASTHALIN: is a short-acting b2 agonist (In short (SABA) these drugs are usually used for the treatment of asthma....usually the treatment regime is using LABA and ICS together and whenever there is an exacerbation of your disease should use SABA so to conclude:

1) use your LABA AND ICS together (that is SEOFLO)
2) use you Saba that is asthalin whenever there is an exacerbation of the disease

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
