Hay fever medicines
I continue to have badly blocked ears and a runny nose for several weeks. I’ve only managed to see paramedics rather than a GP about it. I haven’t used any nasal sprays (other than saline) but would like to try anti-allergy medication such as antihistamine. Yet I’ve read that “A few common stimulating

hi, David K and really interesting posts , I am 77 this year and my reliever inhaler was changed last year with no consultation from Ventolin to Salamol it might be labelled good for environment but I found no comparison to ventolin .

Iodine and Povidone - A Chemistry Lesson
Over the years, we have seen many mentions of povidone-iodine. This video is the first time I have ever come across a proper explanation as to why povidone-iodine is chosen! It then continues with its aim of extracting pure iodine from povidone-iodine. The video could be very boring if you are

Change in inhalers
I'm currently on sertide and being switched over to symbicort. I'm not sure of the dosage etc as need to discuss further with gp. I'm a little concerned as been on seretide for years. When I get switched it triggers flares and I've already had loads of time of work. I work part time. I also think I'm

PAF from allergy/hay fever remedies?
I’ve had increasingly frequent episodes of PAF recently. Last year I went for over a year without any PAF before having an episode in December. I had another episode 3 months later in March of this year and now a third episode only 11 days later. I’m concerned that the condition is becoming more frequent

I had a nasty day long asthma flare today, which is unusual at this time. In winter I normally have daily short, sharp attacks, very unpleasant but responsive to salamol. This attack unusually took an hour coming on, so we did all the normal things, air purifiers on, clear the bins etc. Then it was

Asthma flare up!?
After recovering from chest infection , asthma flare up and asthma attacks. I still have a productive cough and have to sleep sitting up. My peak flow hasn't recovered yet and is 400/500. My asthma woke me up last night and my peak flow was 380/500. After 4 puffs of my salamol I was able to go back to

Parkrun might have to wait
I was intending to do my first ever parkrun tomorrow but having survived Ciaran yesterday, the sun was shining and it was fairly calm. Forecast tomorrow not so good- ah the dilemma, go out this morning or do some S&F and do parkrun tomorrow? Readers, the lure of a lovely sunny morning run was too great

Last year my chemist gave me salamol instead of salbutamol, I took nearly all of the inhaler as it dident help me at all, so my doctor told my chemist I needed salbutamol, but the chemist is saying it's exactly the same, I don't find this at all, iv just looked it up and the salamol is a lot cheaper

Yankee candles?
Hi, my partner and I sometimes use unscented candles which I’m fine with, but we was wondering about the scented Yankee ones do you think it will be ok? And does anyone else use them? . I know things like perfumes, washing powder and deodorant sprays set my asthma off but was wondering if Yankee candles

Salamol
At the instigation of my GP practice I have been moved from salbutamol ( usually supplied as trade named Ventolin)reliever to salamol on the grounds that it is cfc free, it states it on the box. I thought all aerosols were cfc free since about the 1990’s when the hole in the ozone layer was discovered

Ventolin versus Salamol reliever inhalers
I’ve read a number of comments on this site concerning the move from Ventolin to Salamol inhalers. People are concerned that the Salamol inhaler is much weaker, therefore needing more puffs than the ventolin equivalent and I have also read about the bad taste of Salamol inhalers. It seems that Salamol

Inhalers.
Thanks everyone for your replies. At the moment l am on Fostair 200/6 and have Salamol for my reliever. My breathlessness has gotten worse in the last few months and am wondering if it is worth speaking to my consultant about a change.

Up and down
I really don't understand when you have copd the way it goes up and down. I take duaklir inhalation powder which works for me and a salamol as a backup. I walk my dogs most days and am OK doing so but sometimes I seem to be trying to breath through an invisible sheet at the back of my throat and you

Navage?
Many of us (most?) suffer from sinus issues and we have our own tools to deal with these issues. My weapons of choice are Saline spray followed by Flonase before I go to bed. Works pretty well except for right now during allergy season. However, I've been hearing many advertisements for the Navage

How many inhalers?
Another question from me...It's been suggested to me that I could add a Flixotide 250 to my medications, which is currently Symbicort 200 (MART but I still use a lot of Salamol during flare-ups) and Montelukast. To me, this seems weird (and would that be a High Steroid Dose?) so I'm wondering if anyone
