I'm using Rotacap Formoterol Fumarate and Fluticasone propionate powder for inhalation, specifically Formoflo 250. I wasnt very regular with my Rotacap Budecort 100.

Deriphyllin contains Etophylline and Theophylline, whereas Deriphyllin M contains an additional ingredient, Menthol, which helps relieve congestion and cough. As for which one is safer and better, it ultimately depends on your boyfriend's specific condition and how his body responds to the medication.
