I had my asthma and copd review last week and the results were better than last year. different doctors keep changing my inhalers but I made a decision to go back to the ventolin one because it fits my new spacer and don't panic and wake OH !

Th spacer I use is a universal one with a rubber end where you put the inhaler and all inhalers fit in it even though the actual hole is oblong. It is called the aero chamber You don't have a preventer inhaler? That is u usual as ventolin I thought should only be used as a reliever when having an attack.

Glad your review showed you as being better than you were last year that is good news.

sorry, I forgot to say I have seritide to use twice a day as a preventer and ventolin if I have an attack. the last inhaler I was given was shaped a bit like an egg and was useless. I feel safer with ventolin.

Ooo never seen an egg shaped inhaler. They never tried that one on me. I didn't get on well with seretide. Serevent and flixotide were good for me when my on,y problem was asthma.
