Sorry flax, it was so long ago that I can't remember the dose.

I was given another inhaler instead, as Serevent didn't suit me

I would return to your respiratory professional and explain your feelings about it.

Hello. I have been on Serevent (& a steroid Flixotide) for years for asthma & then given Spiriva as well when COPD was diagnosed last year. I agree with knitter you should return to GP if it's not working as you may need something more or it just may not suit you. Have you been diagnosed with Asthma or COPD?

Hello Flax. You should go back to GP as they may be able to offer you a higher dose/add a steroid inhaler and/ or something like spiriva. Keep a diary of your symptoms to illustrate that Serevent is not working for you. Good luck.
