Advair® is a prescription drug used to treat and prevent airway spasms in people with COPD and asthma. The drug works by opening up the airways and allowing more air to get into and through the lungs. This, in turn, makes it easier for people with airway spasms to breathe.
 
The medication comes in two forms: the Advair Diskus®, which contains a dry powder, and the Advair® HFA inhaler, which is a more traditional inhaler. Side effects of the medicine include upper respiratory tract infections, headaches, and sore throat. Because some people are more likely to experience side effects than others, tell your healthcare provider about any other medical conditions you have.
