Hi! I have just started it today, so will let you know how i get on! From what I've been researching on it, it sounds really good, so fingers crossed its not too good to be true!

Yes let me know, i have my asthma check in two days so will ask them too but when i take two puffs 3-5 mins later i go really dizzy and lightheaded but my chest feels great! i usually only take one puff instead of the recommended two as its two that makes me feel funny!

I used to get that with my old inhalers, but it would only last for a few minutes or so. I heard that taking them though a spacer can help with that, but i never got around to trying it. Maybe give it a go for your next dose and see if it stops the dizziness?

I've been on flutiform for 4 months. The first month I had lots of side effects. Funny voice even when using a spacer, terrible anxiety and really bad muscle cramps but they all settled down in the first month. I felt fabulous ever since.

Hello,

That is promising to hear, i have stopped taking it because even the next day after taking two puffs in the previous evening i was feeling shaky and dizzy all day.

Thanks
