They both work the same!. Although Sybicort claims to have a faster onset!.

They Both contain a Long acting bronchodilator beta agonist that lasts for up to 12 hours to treat bronchial smooth muscle constriction!.

They also both contain a corticosteroid to treat airway inflammation!.

Advair = salmeterol (serevent) and Fluticasone (Flovent)

Symbicort = formoterol (Foradil) and Budesenide (Pulmicort)
