Atrovent?

1 Reply

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've posted on here as lucky for me have been going through a good spell the last few months. I've been unwell the last week with lungs being a bit grumpy so I'm bound to the couch. I did have lung function tests last week and was given Atrovent to try. I have to wait for an appointment to see my consultant but just wondered how people on here had got on with Atrovent? I am currently on Seretide 500, uniphykun, singular, bricanyl, ceterizine, and I have a nebuliser for when I'm really bad.

Thanks in advance :)

Hi Nikki,

Sorry that you are going through a rough patch.

In the past I used Atrovent inhaler but that has now been replaced by Atrovent nebules, I got on fine with both although I do find that my heart rate does increase when on/used that medication.

Personally, I have found that I that I tend to respond better to the Atrovent nebules.

Good luck with your new treatment plan and I hope things improve for you soon.
