New design of inhaler.

5 Replies

I have recently been prescribed Fostair 200/6. It suits me OK. I am on my second issue. The first had a counter on the back. This second issue does not. Has the design been changed? It is useful to have the counter so I can reorder a further supply in time.

Hi I have been on fostair for a year and have only just started getting ones with a counter. I'd imagine it's a newer thing and the one you have without is an older one that the chemist had in stock. So hopefully next time will have a counter as it's so useful.

I just note my doses when I record my peak flow. If you do it cumulatively it's no problem.

Been on same Inhaler since Feb, always have had counters. Are you getting yours from a reliable source like a high street pharmacist - or are you getting it online?

From my local dispensing chemist.

When I get my inhalers I know how many days they will last so make a note of that date so I know when to reorder
