Nebuliser

What dose of nebuliser are you on , you can have 5mg salbutamol & 500 micrograms atrovent Also how much prednisolone? But if you are not responding to the medication, you perhaps need to go to hospital , before you get any worse. Hope things improve xxxWhat dose of nebuliser are you on , you can have 5mg salbutamol & 500 micrograms atrovent Also how much prednisolone?

Asthma misery

I’m taking nebuliser salbutamol and atrovent Symbicort inhaler. 40 mg of pred. Co amoxyclav 3 times a day and carbocysteine. I’m still very short of breath and wheezing. My chest is just so tight. And I’ve got a terrible cough. I feel a bit afraid and weepy.I’m taking nebuliser salbutamol and atrovent Symbicort inhaler. 40 mg of pred. Co amoxyclav 3 times a day and carbocysteine.

Asthma

I was taking the Relvar every day(which I still do) but instead of taking the Atrovent inhaler which I could be taking 6-8 puffs a day, I take two nebules. Does this seem weird to anyone. I feel so much better in myself and my anxiety has diminished quite a bit.I was taking the Relvar every day(which I still do) but instead of taking the Atrovent inhaler which I could be taking 6-8 puffs a day, I take two nebules.

Side effects

Last week I’d had three attacks in the space of a week that resulted in A&E treatment with salbutamol, atrovent, hydrocortisone, magnesium and pred tablets. I’ve had an attack free week and have finished the pred now and the ‘cold turkey’ has now set in.Last week I’d had three attacks in the space of a week that resulted in A&E treatment with salbutamol, atrovent, hydrocortisone, magnesium and pred tablets.

Nebuliser

And 3 atrovent daily. Plus symbicort 4 times per day. I'm a bit worried about having more salbutamol. Has anyone increased nebulisers , say to every 2 hours or so and been ok?And 3 atrovent daily.

Bad spell of asthma

He has now been increased to Seretide 500 & given atrovent inhaler & a nebuliser. How often should he be using the atrovent nebules rather than the inhaler? It just arrived but he wasn’t given much guidance on how often. (Got a few days before next appointment).He has now been increased to Seretide 500 & given atrovent inhaler & a nebuliser.

Post attack advice please

The paramedics were amazing and gave me atrovent? And IV hydrocortisone before whisking me to a+e. When I was there i had 3 lots of ipratropium and salbutamol nebs over a period of a few hours. They kept a good eye on me eventually let me home at 2am.The paramedics were amazing and gave me atrovent? And IV hydrocortisone before whisking me to a+e.

It’s been a loooong night 😴😴

Yet more nebs, plus atrovent and hydrocortisone and he keeps saying ‘not sure if you need adrenaline yet... hmmm let’s keep it in reserve’ (tell him I don’t need as never had and I’m not that bad... it’s just a chest infection 😅).Yet more nebs, plus atrovent and hydrocortisone and he keeps saying ‘not sure if you need adrenaline yet... hmmm let’s keep it in reserve’ (tell him I don’t need as never had and I’m not that bad... it’s just a chest infection 😅).

Think this is gonna be a long one... (cause it has been so far... 😅😴)

2 hourly nebs through the night, on the chairs (so no sleep, having got up at 6am wed, and also no dinner as teatime was spent in ambo), stretched it to 4hrly by after my 4am, and FINALLY saw a medic at 9.30am who agreed to admission, decided to up pred to 40 and prescribe 2hrly salb nebs and 4hrly atrovent2 hourly nebs through the night, on the chairs (so no sleep, having got up at 6am wed, and also no dinner as teatime was spent in ambo), stretched it to 4hrly by after my 4am, and FINALLY saw a medic at 9.30am who agreed to admission, decided to up pred to 40 and prescribe 2hrly salb nebs and 4hrly atrovent

Two questions about my asthma

I've also had some nebs at home of bricanyl and atrovent but it doesn't seem to be as effective as the one I had at the hospital. Thank YouI've also had some nebs at home of bricanyl and atrovent but it doesn't seem to be as effective as the one I had at the hospital. Thank You

Finally started the short course of oral steroids

Nebs are not really working as I still feel the asthma symptoms after taking bricanyl and atrovent. Maybe it's too soon to see a change so I'm really hoping that the pred will work and that I will finally get to move on from this nightmare and resume a normal life.Nebs are not really working as I still feel the asthma symptoms after taking bricanyl and atrovent.

Thank you! & Here’s my story...

I’m on symbicort for my asthma and my pulmonary specialist gave me a script for atrovent which I now take daily. I believe that has helped a bit. I feel that I’m in the early stages and drs can’t diagnose yet. I’m petrified as I have two beautiful young girls 2 & 5 and I need to be around!I’m on symbicort for my asthma and my pulmonary specialist gave me a script for atrovent which I now take daily.

Pred, blood sugars, and changing up meds?

QQ: I’m on Atrovent and have considered switching back to Spiriva for a while. I would like to. However, I’m on Atrovent because it’s more flexible dosage-wise, allowing me to increase my dosage when needed, reducing visits to A&E.QQ: I’m on Atrovent and have considered switching back to Spiriva for a while.

Undiagnosed daughter on alot of medication, anyone similar?

She lives on daily, slo-phyllin, montelukas, seretide, steroids in winter and azithromicin, and when needed atrovent and salbutamol. Without these medications my daughter would be living in the hospital, mainly in HDU.She lives on daily, slo-phyllin, montelukas, seretide, steroids in winter and azithromicin, and when needed atrovent and salbutamol.
