Economic Evaluation Of Fluticasone Propionate/Formoterol Fumarate (Flutiform®) Vs Fluticasone/Salmeterol And Budesonide/Formoterol In Spain [PDF]
Introduction The aim of this economic evaluation was to estimate the cost-effectiveness of fluticasone propionate/formoterol (FP/FORM; Flutiform®) and compare it to those of fluticasone/salmeterol (FS) and budesonide/formoterol (BF) when used in the treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe asthma.

NMR characterisation of dynamics in solvates and desolvates of formoterol fumarate [PDF]
Solid-state NMR is used to characterise dynamics in the ethanol solvate of the pharmaceutical material formoterol fumarate and its associated desolvate. Jump rates and activation barriers for dynamic processes such as phenyl ring rotation and methyl group rotational diffusion are derived from 1D-EXSY and (13)C spin-lattice relaxation times respectively.
