Asthma – Emerging Therapies – Asthma & COPD | Salmeterol & Fluticasone Generic Wave 1 (US)

MARKET OUTLOOK

Mylan’s salmeterol/fluticasone propionate generic, Wixela Inhub, is the first substitutable generic for GSK’s Advair, one of the top-selling therapies for asthma and COPD. Although other nonsubstitutable salmeterol/fluticasone propionate inhalers were recently introduced to the market (e.g., Teva’s AirDuo and its generic), their uptake has not been very robust. This Asthma and COPD Emerging Therapies series tracks the awareness, trial, and use of Wixela Inhub by U.S. physicians at one, six, and twelve months after its launch—data that should give Mylan and its competitors insight into the product’s market uptake. The series also examines physician-anticipated trends in asthma and COPD treatment, particularly with respect to the uptake of Wixela Inhub, and assesses Mylan’s promotional efforts.
