Hi
Each of your inhalers is a stand alone medication which requires no further assistance from any other product. Unless stated in the instructions for use.
The order you choose to take them is a personal choice, rather than a medical benefit.
The only recommendation given by my PR class was, if you have mucus problem, take ventolin first then do your chest clearance , then continue with your other inhalers.
For me I take spireva first , then shower dress breakfast, then seretide, I rarely use ventolin .
I always take mine in the same order, main rule being bronchodilator about 10-15 mins before steroid inhaler, but you are right the best person to ask concerning the order you should take your lung medicines is the respiratory nurse or doctor.
