Temporary Asthma
The pulmonologist called it airway hyperactivity and its temporary because the air is extremely polluted in my city and he prescribed
symbicort
powder inhaler capsules.

Symbicort 100/6 to 200/6
So the asthma nurse has now suggested trying increasing my
Symbicort
from the 100/6 (I take 2 puffs morning and night) to the 200/6. Is this likely to make any particular difference?

trimbow in asthma
Just started on trimbow after using Spiriva Respimat and
Symbicort
, and the steroid component is just not enough to keep my asthma under control. Has anyone ever used it together with fostair or
symbicort
? I know one isn't supposed to but maybe some consultants prescribe two steroid inhalers?

Temporary Asthma
I visited chest physician he said its hyperactivity of airways and gave me
symbicort
for 2 weeks with montelukast. I went for second opinion to my family physician, he said its post covid asthma and its temporary and gave me two inhalers fostair and salbo for 6 days and said its temporary.

New inhaler
I'm being trialled on
Symbicort
MART rather than the fluticasone and salbutamol I'm currently using. Has anyone any experience of this and did they find it effective? I'm open to the idea, though a little worried, as I know salbutamol works when I need it.

peak flow is okay but struggling to breathe
My best is 550 on
Symbicort
plus Spiriva and I find that the peak flow doesn't drop below 470-500 even if I struggle to breathe with tight and burning chest? Sometimes even with confirmed chest infection and wheeze across chest as per stethoscope my peak flow sits at 500. Anyone else knows why?

Severe SOB
It is consistently 600/650 before and after taking
Symbicort
. Is that normal? However, despite the peak flow reading the
Symbicort
inhaler isn't working or relieving the SOB. I'm really confused! If I bend to tie shoelaces I cant breathe at all.

eosinophils, cough, alopecia
I was given
Symbicort
and Alvesco inhaler but did not help. So suffering for good 6months, I was referred to pulmonary dept and there I asked to get bronchoscopy. I was diagnose with eosinophils pneumonia and put on taking steroids - prednisone.

Why are relievers standard with preventers.
Hi,I was wondering why it seems that we are given
symbicort
or fostair to take every morning and night regardless of wether we need a reliever at that time or not. It's my understanding that taking relievers all the time can harm the lungs?

BRESTRI
I've been prescribed Breztri after 4 years of
Symbicort
and Spiriva which served me well. This from a respiratory specialist- I just went along as we all do. Any opinions on Breztri ?

it feels like I'll never get better
I was prescribed
Symbicort
(and Ventolin) and took normal doses at the start, but I also tried stronger doses. This caused throat pain and hoarseness, and the physician said the dose was way too high for a 20-year-old. I got prescribed montelukast 3 weeks ago, but haven't noticed any change.

Recurring chest infections and phlegmy cough
My asthma medication was changed in March from Flutiform 125mg to
Symbicort
200/6. I felt even worse on this and I insisted my asthma nurse put me back on Flutiform. This she did, very reluctantly. As things weren't improving, I went to see a respiratory consultant privately.

Hello everyone.
I usually take 4puffs of my
Symbicort
2 in the morning and 2 at night, and when I got sick in April with bronchitis. My pulmo doctor told me to puffs 1 in the morning and 1 at night.
