In a word "Yes"

When I was on the 100/6 I was still having to use my other daily rescue inhaler up to 20 times a day (when dose is meant to be 5 times a day) since using Fostair 200/6 most days I can stay within the recommended dose of 5 times daily with the ventolin. Occasionally I will need the ventolin more and sometimes, not at all.
