This is not a complete list of all possible side effects. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience any unexpected symptoms. For serious or life-threatening side effects, seek emergency medical attention immediately.
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling: • Serious Asthma-Related Events – Hospitalizations, Intubations, Death [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] • Oropharyngeal Candidiasis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] • Pneumonia [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 )] • Immunosuppression and Risk of Infections [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )] • Hypercorticism and Adrenal Suppression [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.8 )] • Paradoxical Bronchospasm [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.10 )] • Cardiovascular Effects [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.12 )] • Reduction in Bone Mineral Density [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.13 )] • Growth Effects [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.14 )] • Glaucoma and Cataracts [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.15 )] Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
• COPD: Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥3%) are nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, headache, oral candidiasis, back pain, pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, cough, oropharyngeal pain, arthralgia, hypertension, influenza, pharyngitis, and pyrexia.
( 6.1 ) • Asthma: Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2%) are nasopharyngitis, oral candidiasis, headache, influenza, upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis, sinusitis, oropharyngeal pain, dysphonia, and cough.

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease The safety data described below are based on two 6-month and two 12-month trials and one long-term mortality trial.
In these studies, 5,356 patients with COPD received at least 1 dose of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg.
Adverse reactions observed in other studies of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA in COPD patients were similar to those observed in these 5 trials.
6-Month Trials The incidence of adverse reactions associated with fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg in Table 2 is based on 2 placebo-controlled, 6-month clinical trials (Trials 1 and 2;
n = 1,224 and n = 1,030, respectively).
Of the 2,254 patients, 70% were male and 84% were White.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • LABA monotherapy increases the risk of serious asthma-related events.
( 5.1 ) • Do not initiate in acutely deteriorating COPD or asthma.
Do not use to treat acute symptoms.
( 5.2 ) • Do not use in combination with additional therapy containing a LABA because of risk of overdose.
( 5.3 ) • Candida albicans infection of the mouth and pharynx may occur.
Like all medications, Fluticasone Furoate And Vilanterol can cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes this medication will experience them. Many side effects are dose-dependent and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Others may require dose adjustment or medical attention.
