3 puffs of Seretide 50 twice a day??
My ten year old dd saw the doctor today for a chest infection. We have the usual Amoxicillin to take but he also said to take her Seretide 50 inhaler up to three puffs twice a day instead of her usual 2 puffs twice a day (via spacer). The leaflet in the pack doesn't mention 3 puffs even in a fully

Oh PLEASE help, so desperate.
Hi all, I'm losing tonnes of weight over this vile illness, (and sleep) my hubby and I are at loggerheads constantly, and I need some reassurance if possible. My 2 year old (2 yesterday, birthday at DRs!) has suspected asthma, has a blie and brown inhaler, and gets lots of chest infections. He finished

Stupid question: Was this an asthma attack?
I am feeling utterly out of my depth here. My 11 yo has had a recent exascerbation. She's had a five day course of 30mg of pred and is taking 2 ventolin, 4 clenil and 2 serevent morning and evening. We are also about half way through a course of amoxycillin though she's not had a chest infection the

Does my son have asthma?
Hi everyone :) I'm just posting for a bit of advice. My son is 5 years old and has been coughing at night for about a month or so. I took him to the GP about 3 weeks ago who listened to his chest and said one lung was'nt as clear as it should be , so put him on Co-Amoxiclav (antibiotics) They didn't

chest infections, whats 'normal'?
My 7yod was diagnosed with asthma autumn last year. I'd taken her to the docs with yet another chest infection and explained that I wasn't happy for her to keep taking antibitics without knowing why she was getting so many URT infections. A peak flow diary was kept and seasonal asthma was the diagnosis

Update to night cough
Thought I'd update you on my 3 year old's night cough (a few messages ago). I took him to the doctors, who said he should increase his reliever inhaler to 2 puffs twice a day (he was on the minimum of 1 twice a day) and started him on amoxycillin (which he's had twice before). His chest was clear so

Am I being impatient?
Hello To cut a long story short, I have a viral infection that's had a bad effect on my asthma. I'm on 30mg of Prednisolone, amoxicillin, 400mg of beclometasone (twice a day), 100mg of salmeterol (twice a day) and I still feel like I'm constantly tight-chested. None of these medicines seem to keep

Home Nebulisers
Hello All, At the moment I am unwell with Asthma due to a chest infection,I have been prescribed Amoxicillin, Prednisilone and Nystatin. My question is, I have read recently that home nebulising is no better than using your existing reliever, and I was wondering if it is worth me continuing with my nebulising
