Just back from seeing my lovely asthma nurse.. Now on sirdupla as she wants me to use it through a spacer and I can't with seretide. Blood pressure high (it was last time I went 4 weeks ago ) so I've got to go again in 2 weeks to get that checked, i don't seem to be away from the place 😳 Thank goodness for ppc otherwise I'd have to get a second job to pay for meds

Hey, I read your other post but I'll respond to this one. Sirdupla and Seretide are basically the same thing but why couldn't you use the spacer with Seretide..?

It's the same ingredients but cheaper but you can get seretide in a MDI that you can use through a spacer. Money is tight in clinical commission groups but a cheaper version with the same ingredients should be okay.
