I take zafirlukast (aka accolate) twice a day plus seretide 2xtwice a day plus ventolin 2 x twice a day plus releiver when and as I need it. However, the medications are for chronic asthma and bronchiectasis.

Ditto. Flutiform was tearing my mouth, even with spacer. First appt. was two weeks away. Just for interest stopped inhaler. No difference on peak flows, just as tired, same chest tightness as on the Flutiform. Only real difference, mouth has healed and eating is a joy again.

For over five years now I have been on 'Seredite' - one puff in the morning and and one in the evening, and the control has been very effective, ie non of the usual nasty episodes!

I use Qvar and Serevent preventor inhalers twice a day. Use Salamol reliever inhaler if I need it.

Since commencing on a daily dose of Relvar Ellipta 92/22, my asthma has been well controlled meaning that I no longer need to take Salbutamol in between.
