Experiences with

Salmeterol

I am mild COPD and was taking Salmeterol and Carbocisteine. It seemed quite effective. The doctor advised that I might be better on Anoro instead of Salmeterol.

all, and the other constant has been Atrovent or Spiriva, essentially depending how I’m feeling 😂 I’m 24 lol I wanted my medication to look cool when I was a bit younger, what can I say 🤷‍♂️ So even though I don’t have a diagnosis, I have been consistently on an ICS, LABA, and LAMA (fluticasone, salmeterol

I also know that Fomoterol didn't last as long for me as Salmeterol which is how I ended up on Sirdupla (I tried it with the conventional form of Sirdupla).

As my post title says, the doctor prescribed Advair, but the pharmacy gave me Wixela Inhub, fluticasone propionate and salmeterol inhalation powder 250 mcg/ 50 mcg. First of all, is this the same? Anyone here know if these 2 medications are equivalent to each other?

I've tried a variety of other inhlaers over the past year: Q-var, Pulmicort, Seretide 50, Flixotide (with and without either formoterol or Salmeterol). None of them work anywhere near as well as the Fostair. Thus, I'm at a bit of a dead end.

So on with the infomercial 😉😂 LONG ACTING BETA 2 AGONISTS (LABAs) - salmeterol/formoterol inhalers For a lot of people a steroid inhaler is not enough to control their asthma, so your GP may try giving you a 3rd inhaler (on top of the steroid and reliever inhalers).

My asthma is controlled by salmeterol, tiatropium, clenil modulate, salbutamol,uniphyllin, and montelucast, does this put me in the severe or at risk box ??

I’ve had asthma for years but it’s always been stable using clenil, salmeterol and salbutamol.

Anyway about 8 weeks ago I started using salmeterol (purple and white) twice a day as a preventor as I was noticing my asthma a little! Then with covid-19 I’ve kept going with it, my question is has anyone else noticed irritation with it?

Hi I'm a fairly newbie to a fib confused with meds I'm on 2 X 5mg apixiban1 x2.5 Bisoprolol since Dec already on 1x20mg Atorvastatin 1x5mg Amlodipine I also take 10mg Braltus and have salbutamol inhaler and Salmeterol/fluticasone as and when req as I have copd do I need Amlodipine as well as bisoprolol

All was well until I got a chest infection; I was given antibiotics and salmeterol, went back to 2 puffs, and saw some improvement within a week.

I was recently put on salmeterol that’s on top of my fostair 200/6 and montelukas, salbutamol. After I very very prolong asthma episode i went 3 months with asthma symptoms and low pf. I’d also had a chest infection which forced me to go to my gp.

I take serevent or seretide (fluticasone with Salmeterol - purple inhaler) my preventer twice a day. I ensure take blue inhaler 4 times a day more if needed. Paracetamol for pain from coughing and I have on repeat prescription rescue steroid tablets prednisolone (8 x 5mg tablets a day for 5 days).

Hi had my daughter at doctor today she is 8 on terbutaline and budesonide inhalers 1puff twice daily and monkelust tablet at night today she was given salmeterol inhaler and im wondering im i to give her all three inhalers or stop one any advise appreciated

After a course of oral steroids I was started on Clenil Modulite 100, 1 puff twice a day which has gradually been increased to 3 puffs twice a day and I am now also taking 2 puffs twice a day of Salmeterol.

I was prescribed "Serevent" (Salmeterol) to replace the maintreatment of "Tiotrupium" (Spiriva). The dose prescribed was 1 dose daily.

Two or three years ago i went onto salmeterol and that helped a lot too. Obviously everyones different but some people may have the same problem with lactose as me so hope this helps somebody

Obviously I've read up on it now and its a steroid measured dosage inhaler that contains salmeterol and fluticasone propionate.

It's a little surprising to me because the salmeterol component of my seretide 250 and 100 is the same (25mg) and it's just the fluticasone component that is stronger. I heard of relievers causing tremor and high heart rate but didn't this was the case of the preventer drugs.

Seem okay so far on Flutiform, which has fluticasone, ingredient being the same as the Seretide, but Seretide also contains salmeterol. but Feeling anxious that I will have further reaction after a while, to the Flutiform. Hope I get some sleep tonight.
