I wrote about this two months ago, where a group pharmacist who i have never seen or spoken to changed my Fostair to Fobumix powder and just sent a text to tell me about the change. I was pretty annoyed about this at the time. I had wondered about Fostair MART regime, but never had a chance to discuss it.
Anyway i have given the Fobumix a go, it has been ok but peak flows down a little and have finally rang the pharmacist but had to wait a week for an appointment to speak to him on the phone. Success though. I am to try Fostair MART. I wish he had just rung me in the first place though and it appears bad practice and cutting corners, i guess because they are so busy.
He did agree that my being able to breath with Fostair inhaler was preferable than worrying about impact on global warming. I must say using a spacer with Fostair allows me to get maximum benefit, i just found trying to breath in the Fobumix powder with one huge inhalation meant I was getting powder caught in my mouth. Some people might manage it - but i have found using a spacer much more effective. Fingers crossed that the Fostair MART is going to be effective.
Does anyone here use Fostair MART, i would be interested to hear about your experiences?
thanks Sally 😀👍
