Identify a pharmaceutical product - help please

[andy400]

A local lady out here has asked me if I can find out how much a certain product is in the UK, due to it being extortionately priced out here. She evn wrote it down to me, but she must have got the spelling wrong or something, as I can't even find anything similar.

Apparently it's made by GSK, and she wrote its name as 'PICKFLUEMETAR'. It's an inhaler/inhaled product for allergies, or something.

Anyone know what she's on about?

Thanks.

flumetasone pivalate.....eczema in external ear...think its a steroid.

Guessing she either means Flixonase nasal spray which is for nasal allergies/hayfever (about £11 cost price for the prescription one) or Flixotide inhaler which is an asthma steroid inhaler (£5 to £36 cost, depending on strength, prescription only).
Both are GSK products.

I've never heard of anything else made by GSK that sounds like that!!
