It’s an emergency prescription in case my symptoms get worse over the weekend, my regular Fostair seemed to cope okay through my first 2 weeks after testing positive with covid but for the last few days my asthma has been getting worse so I sought over the phone.

The Fostair 200 inhaler is a restricted item in my CCG, ( only one a month), so I was delighted that this didn’t seem to be a problem. BUT when I asked for my July medication, it wasn’t available to order through the NHS app.

She took me off my two inhalers inhalers , Fostair and genuair and put me on trimbow 2 puffs am and pm and said not to use Ventolin as that was incorporated in it.

Before the infection I was very well controlled on my preventer (fostair) and not needed my ventolin since February.

I currently have a Salbutamol inhaler a Fostair Inhaler and Montelukast daily. I’m not noticing much difference but not sure what my peak flow reading should be at when I’m well when it has constantly been between 250-350 for a fair few years now.

Having had similar issues on Fostair, Symbicort, Flutiform, Serevent, or indeed anything with a LABA in it I suspect that I am just over sensitive to it.

Fostair and carbocisteine not helping. Have just read about a new drug called Nintedanib . Anyone know anything about this? I will try anything to relieve this condition. Thanks xx

I had my first appointment last week with the respiratory consultant, they have added spirivia to see if this help, I am currently on fostair 100, montelukast, spirivia and my blue one I take about 3 times a day.

I was already taking Fostair twice daily, plus more lately Montelukast, which worked for me in the past. Now have an antihistimine added in too. I’m still coughing and out of breath every day though, nothing is making much difference.

The Consultant changed my morning/ nighttime Inhaler, Fostair/100/6, to 200/6. This has been a big help, but still not enough. There is no sign of Physiotherapy, or any other advice. Can anyone here help.

I have come off my fostair preventer in January , but I know summer will bring lots of pollen , which tends to be asthma trigger . Anyone have any advice ? Is it just wait and see , see if relieve dies and add preventer if required over the summer ?

On fostair now and last time it was bad steroids and fostair didn’t work, but eventually montelukast did. I’ve had covid recently and whilst my asthma felt ok during it, I have been coughing on and off since.

Still on fostair/qvar/ xolair/ antihistamines etc.

I also take Fostair inhaler and Dymista nasal spray, and my asthma seems well controlled on this. Thanks!

I’ve been on Fostair inhaler for 2 years now but recently starting to feel like my heart skips a beat or having palpitations has anyone experienced this with Fostair? I take 2 puffs twice a day

This is complicated by the fact that my daughter ( who I’m writing on behalf) is 17 yrs old so can’t have certain meds until she’s 18. ( consultant said possibly Fostair once 18) she has a GP appointment this wk and consultant said her inhaler can be reduced if asthma under control without saying which

Have other people had problems when switching from Seretide (which was very successful for me) to Fostair 100/6. I am finding it less effective and peak flow has fallen by about 20%

Was on top medium dose of ICS Seretide for years (till recently started tapering off due to adrenal insufficiency). 500 Fluticasone (equivalent 1000 Fostair beclamethasone ) per day Is that MART? Should I have been in a Covid group eg 6?

ive had a cough for 9 months , coughing so much it makes me gag i make a horrible noise i gasp for breath my asthma nurse put me on a new inhaler its called innovair next inhaler, or fostair next inhaler, it helps somewhat but I'm still coughing really bad all i bring up is white stuff and if i
