Relvar?

I have been on seretide for years and doctor changed me to Fostair which did not work so back to seretide. I know some drugs work better than others for some people. Was wondering what the latest steroid inhalers are and opinions of Relvar which I had not heard of.

I have been on Qvar, seretide, symbicort and flixotide, none of which really did anything for me. I have been on the higher dose Relvar for about a year and it's the best my asthma has been in years. I have no side effects and it's working for me.

Been on qvar,fostair 100 and 200 all did nothing. Got put on relvar 184 backed up with spiriva respimat and haven't had a admission since in the last 13 months, after 11 admissions in the preceding 12 months, new diagnosis of asthma and all that

Thanks for replying. What a relief for you. Going to ask about it.

I have used Relvalr Ellipta for a few years and really believe it helps. I am now on Trelegy Ellipta. D

Thanks for replying. Why did you change? How are you getting on with Trelegy Ellipta?

The pharmacist next door to my GP surgery said it was better than Relvar and Incruse which I was on :)
