Another heads up for Alvesco/ ciclesonide inhaler users

[risabel59]

Hi there, Just saw my consultant at the RBH last week, he told me that Astra Zeneca is having another manufacturing problem with Alvesco. RBH pharmacy has v. Low stocks. I managed to refill my prescription. But all users should make sure they have a backup inhaler or get one on order.

Cheers

Thanks for letting us know Ive actually given up on Alvesco just getting it is a nightmare and I'm not sure it works that well for me. I was taking it with Salmetrol seperatly but I'm just having my worst exacerbation for years. I'm now on Flutiform which seems ok so far and less harsh on my airways and throat than Seretide.
