It comes as a nasal spray or a cream/ointment:

But if it has arrived out of the blue and it hasn't been discussed with a doctor -are you sure it is meant for you and someone at the practice hasn't made a mistake?

Well - if it isn't, they have been rather rude I'd say! Communication and all that!

happy new year Ronzy! 🍀

Do you have the symptoms of hay fever, blocked or runny nose? It seems to be prescribed for allergy type symptoms.

All the very best Jane do your very best to make it a good year.

No I haven’t got running nose hay fever,but have a touch of asma

I asked for spray blue one this is what they sent me 🤷🏽‍♂️

That many things going on don’t know what I have got.

Think I’m improving 🤨 it’s a strange carry on

Right - you meant you wanted the rescue inhaler for asthma? Ventolin/salbutamol? This one?

Someone has got it wrong and they need telling clearly to get it right. What they've sent you won't do what you need. The practice manager needs to know what is going on too - someone needs some education.

cleared it up yesterday morning when I put in request for another Spey

They had decided I didn’t need one as I had many times said I didn’t know

If it made a difference they wrang me 😵‍💫 .so I went along with that 🤷🏽‍♂️But they could have said

I will do my best Ronzy! I am glad that you think that you are improving. I hope you get your asthma meds. Soon! I think that I am feeling better. My husband made Christmas this year - all the decorations, a lot of the wrapping and fabulous food. We women do this for years, but when a fella does it, it feels dazzling. He seemed very happy doing it all. When I tried to clean up, my son leapt in. Redundant I am! 🍀

I would agree with others comments. I was prescribed it when I was waking with blocked nasal passages and having slight dizzy bouts. It is a steroid.
