Hi Everyone,Recently went to a new pulmonologist. Since I was diagnosed with asthma 2 years ago I have been using Flovent HFA 220. No issues, just sometimes feel like I need a little to open up things. So Dr. recommended Breo . I tried Breo but made me jittery and at times it caused leg cramps. So the Dr. recommended advair discus 500 which she said it was compatible to Breo . I haven’t started it because I am scared that being it 500 that it might cause me an episode of A Fib. Is there anybody that has A Fib and asthma been successful with a combination inhaler ? I really would appreciate your advice . Thank you !

I take a combination inhaler with no problems and a blue inhaler when necessary but can’t comment on the ones you mention as I haven’t heard of them. You could try the Asthma forum?
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. I will check with the Asthma forum . Have a great weekend .
Yes I take Symbicort which is a combined inhaler. I have P A F I dont freguent episodes but the Symbicort certainly doesnt make any diffeance. Been asthmatic 30 years and P A F 5 years. Very fit and healthy so no, no probs.
I have relvar and ventolin when necessary and they don't seem to have affected my AF
