Help and advice needed for son
We saw the asthma specialist GP last week and he escalated my son’s treatment by doubling the Seretide and prescribing 6 puffs of
Salbutamol
every four hours. We finally saw some impact and for two days we saw a big improvement for 1-2hrs after each dose of
Salbutamol
.

Hi, Can anyone advise me on using a spacer with Fostair please
I’ve used a spacer with
salbutamol
and given it a shake before use, but I’m not sure if I need to shake Fostair before using it with a spacer. Is it a powder inhaler? I’ve been on Duoresp spiromax, which I took without a spacer and it wasn’t necessary to shake it before use.

Experiences with montelukast or immunotherapy
I am, however, still struggling and taking
salbutamol
a lot during the day. I have tried all the different antihistamines with out much improvement and have now been prescribed montelukast. I was wondering if anyone has much experience with the drug and if they found it helpful?

Why my asthma medications do not work?

These symptoms are present every day, Every hour and they worsen with movements. Spirometry has a sightly lower average fev

Atypical asthma ling function results
I am not sure what the treatment options are if I don't respond to
salbutamol
. The Symbicort clearly hasnt resolved the inflammation yet.

Unusual allergy-induced asthma symptom or unrelated (mild shakiness)?
Also, just to note, this isn’t related to the shakiness after taking a
salbutamol
inhaler as I haven’t needed to take it for a few days (although the feeling is similar, albeit a much milder and longer lasting version). Thanks

Do you ever go back to “normal”?
The Montelukast has worked 🙂 but that dose of steroids never seemed to put me completely right, and by start of December the GP prescribed another 5 day dose and changed my inhaler to Spiriva (2puffs a day) and
Salbutamol
as a reliever.

Home Nebs 🫁 - they may help improve QoL in severe asthmatics, but are they safe?! Everything you need to know!
The other issue is hypokalemia (low potassium) which is a common side effect of
salbutamol
, so if you’re using a lot of
salbutamol
(in whatever format) keep an eye out for muscle cramps/weakness/twitchiness etc and get them to check if you are concerned you have this.

Bad exacerbation - when to return to work?
and recently upped to include montelukast, but was still having to take
salbutamol
at work (I'm a teacher). Evidently I wasn't as controlled as I'd thought, as I had a bad flare at work, an ambulance was called, and I ended up admitted for 3 days.

Antibiotics and allergies
I have been on Tazocin for 3 days and nebulised
salbutamol
, I had started a 5 day course of steroids prior to going in so I have now finished those.

When will atypical asthma patients start being treated properly? There must be some way of raising this - it's all here on this page!
But they said it was too much
salbutamol
. Anyway, without rehashing the whole humiliating episode, which included being told firmly to stop coughing, I'm now at the point that I won't be ringing 999 until I have a visible obvious sign of respiratory distress eg blue lips or audible bad wheeze.

Continuing flare of cough predominant asthma - amytryptiline
I've seen my respiratory team, had multiple calls with my GP, but essentially just managing at home on lots of meds and lots of
salbutamol
nebs, which are the only thing that stop the cough. Except sometimes my lungs are so hyper responsive that the nebs don't work, or at least not for long.

Skin allergies
(still Seretide because of tachycardia that doesn't flow well with
salbutamol
) The problem now is that I have gotten these skin allergies!🤕 it's so irritating because I just keep scratching my skin and get hives eventually.

Inhalers and Atrial Fibrillation
I have been given an Aero Chamber and
Salbutamol
ventolin evohaler. My GP suspected asthma although I havent officially been diagnosed with it. Apparently because of the Covid they are not doing lung function tests. I suffer with Atrial Fibrillation for which I take Flecainide.

salbutamol

Steroids - Everything you need to know!
Unfortunately as these types tend to be unresponsive to steroids they often end up having to over rely on
salbutamol
until they reach a point of needing emergency care when things start to kick off for them. So there you have it guys. Everything you need to know about steroids 😉😅😂.

Inhalers: what to take and when!
The
salbutamol
can take up to 15 minutes to fully kick in, but then should last 4hrs.
