unfortunatly I am not on ventolin, I am on an inhaler called symbicort. My experience of ventolin is not good, I get really bad palpitations from it. Sorry if this dosen't help you.

What is this post in relation to? It sounds like you're replying to someone but I can't figure out who.

Like all meds what works like magic for some will make others worse. I use only symbcort on the MART. I find it very helpful.

Agreed. Can I ask what MART stands for?

Hi, mart stands for maintenance and reliever therapy. It means you have just one inhaler with two strands to it. One is to keep your asthma under control (maintenance) & the other is to help if you get symptoms(reliever). Hope that helps.
