Fluticasone is NOT intended for?

  1. Acute treatment

  2. Preventing cough and excess mucus

  3. Preventing life-threatening COPD exacerbations

  4. Intranasal administration

The correct answer is: Acute treatment

Fluticasone is used to treat an array of respiratory conditions such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It works by reducing inflammation and airway constriction, improving breathing. However, it is not meant for emergency or acute treatment of breathing issues. Instead, it is used for preventing symptoms or improving overall respiratory health. Options B and C may sound like relevant uses, but they are both related to managing symptoms rather than acute treatment. Option D is related to a different form of administration than the one used for respiratory conditions.
