Ok - I'll keep this brief. Recently prescribed Alvesco 160 mcg - 2 puffs twice a day. Have had terrible croaky throat - asthma nurse at clinic said should take through volumatic / spacer type thing! Makes my asthma worse when I do this...... after a cpl of days breathing had plummetted. Reversed to taking full blast and chest ok but throat rubbish again! Is this normal.... Thanks
