How long for Spiriva to kick in?
Hey all, I just prescribe a Spiriva inhaler as a add on to my Fostair for perpetual asthma. How long did it take for you to notice the preventative effects? My doctor said it should be a few days, but a quick google search said 4-8 weeks. Just trying to get a sense of what to expect, and when to let

Salbutemol Versus Ventolin
Would like to know what other people think about Salbutemol inhaler versus Ventolin. I have always found Ventolin to be the better option for me even though they are supposed to be exactly the same

Desperate mama
My almost 5 year old son started with coughing symptoms at night around the age of 2, he sleeps soundly until about 12AM-2AM and then wakes up with forceful persistent coughs, mostly when a cold is circulating in the house. He was on so much prednisone and eventually we started a preventative inhaler

Peak flow after blue inhaler
Hi all, I was diagnosed with asthma during the first lockdown and I've queried the diagnosis since the blue inhaler never gave me much relief from my symptoms. I've never had an asthma attack as such but what prompted the diagnosis was the fact that I had an episode in which I was bent over my kitchen

do inhalers cause pain in your sternum?
Im wondering if any of you have experienced a discomfort in your sternum when breathing deeply? Weird question I know. In September I had covid and thankfully only had very mild symptoms. Two weeks later I had a chest infection and ended up on antibiotics and steroids. Since then I have had to change

Turbo Steroid Inhaler
I was asthmatic from being young to about 18 then it disappeared for 40 years. After a general anaesthetic in May I suffered breathing problems particularly at night. I was given a ventolin inhaler which helped for a few hours. After 2 months I was given a turbo inhaler, 2 puffs twice a day. This

Ozempic, anyone taking it?
After doing a lot of research on my own and participating in seminars, I finally got my doctors to agree to allow me to try a GLP1 inhibitor. My diabetes has been well controlled and I have even cut down on my insulin use. But I am unable to lose weight so we are trying Ozempic, (semaglutide). I have

Could pet dander make asthma worse?
Hi Everyone! I am 67 yr. old woman with a long history of postnasal drip (lifelong) and acid reflux (10 yrs.). I was diagnosed with asthma in Aug. 2020 which I didn't feel too bothered by and even wondered if it was a correct diagnosis. In Apr. 2021, I was exposed to a lot of smoke which set off bronchitis

Pneumonia
I was ill for 5 weeks, with a suspected chest infection and couldn't get time off work to go to gp. This turned into pneumonia, 2 courses of antibiotics, 2 courses of steroids and 2 weeks off work recovering. I went back to work on Tuesday but am still quite unwell. Im not relying on my reliever inhaler

Fostair cleaning instructions
I have been taking fostair for some months. As I get use up the doses, the inhaler gets clogged up. The cleaning instructions say wipe the mouth piece inside and out, but you don't wash it like you do the clenil modulite inhaler. The hole gets clogged up over time as wiping it does not properly clean

why do i have to be “ less” ADHD?!
employers will post jobs and say “ we dont discriminate due to gender, disabilities, etc. but thats not true. if a person has lung cancer n coughs alot its accepted, same as someone who has diabetes n has to take breaks to take insulin . etc etc etc. i could give lots of examples but you get the point

Pharmacological significance of extra-oral taste receptors

Do I have un-treated asthma?
Hi there, I'm 40 and I've had a diagnosis of asthma for years but it's never been properly diagnosed, treated or reviewed. I've sporadically had blue and brown inhalers but never felt they did much good. I've never really believed the asthma diagnosis because I don't have the classic symptoms such as
