Respiratory Specialist
I'm taking ventolin and
fostair
permanently. I've been on predisinone I just wondered if anyone's experience with the specialist and what to expect?

Posting for my Dad - Symbicort 200 Turbo Vs Fostair
I spoke to my respiratory nurse who has recommended
fostair
. Mum & Dad have spoken to asthma UK and done their research, they appear to be happier with this inhaler as they feel the symbicort has never suited my Dad. Has any other asthma suffers done the switch?

Back on Seretide :D
I was changed to
Fostair
from Symbicort (200/6, 4 puffs twice a day) by the asthma nurse I don't usually see, on the premise that '"it's double-strength anyway", because I didn't like the DPI device.

Home, but it's hard..
I was on
Fostair
initially and I definitely noted that the change to Seretide 250/25 was a turning point for me. I was also on 40mg Pred daily until this morning, and Amoxicillin 1500mg a day for the first 7 days of my admission.

in place of the Seretide without any explanation why. I have just started using the

New to site
I currently have a chest infection, so am taking antibiotics and now have
Fostair
with a spacer thing. I am not coughing as much, but I feel drained and tire easily. I have had a few days off work, but feel guilty now that I am not wheezing as much.

Fostair
100/6mcg, 3 puffs morning, 3 night (not really working so going back to doc next week). Montelukast 10mg at night. Atrovent 20mcg, 2 puffs before ice hockey (or indeed any exercise), or 2 puffs 3 times a day if I'm yellow-zoning.

Uncontrolled Asthma
I have been referred 4 times to the lung function clinic at my hospital and they prescribed theophylline Montelukast 10mg and
Fostair
100/6. I have had chest xrays and spirometer tests with allergy and sputum tests and are all coming back with normal results.

Struggling...
It's always been pretty mild, until this year when I was prescribed
Fostair
, then montelukast. Until July, everything was fine. Then I got laryngitis. Since then, I've had two courses of oral pred, finishing the last one last Friday. And I'm back to coughing again.

Fostair Nexthaler
I have now been put on
Fostair
Nexthaler and have to take two puffs twice a day. I hope this works as well as Seretide because since I have been taken off this I have been on different ones which I felt has not kept my asthma under control.
