How should I take my medication?
Hi all, I am currently using 2xfostair morning ; 2xfostair evening and
spiriva

I am powerless
I tried Fostair, Symbicort, Seretide, Flutiform,
Spiriva
respimat. Nothing helps me. I have to take ventolin 2-4 times a day. I have shortness of breath and my chest is wheezing. Two days ago I had a meeting with a consultant and he said that he couldn't write anything new for me.

Seretide and spiriva respimat
Today my doctor prescribed an additional
spiriva
respimat inhaler. Do any of you also have such a set of inhalers and after how long did your asthma improve? Thanks in advance for all answers.

Spiriva
My consultant said he'd like me to try this medication out as an add-on treatment, how do you find it if you're on it?

Intense Stabbing in centre of chest
I am already on a maintenance dose of prednisolone whilst I am waiting for biologics, I take
spiriva
, fostair, montelukast, cetrazine and beconase, so thought I had seen most symptoms by now, but obviously not? Sorry for the long post, would really appreciate any feedback, thank you 😞

Call asthma doctor? She doesn’t help much. Long term prednisone.
I also take dulera 200 inhaler,
spiriva
, montelukast, xyzal. When I’ve checked my peak flow meter it has been between 275 and 325. My usual medium low is 375, my regular is 450. Thoughts? should I keep using my home treatments? Call in? Urgent care? Online doc?

I’ve just received an nhs emergency identity card through the mail that states that I’m steroid dependent
This has not been discussed with me and I’m quite shocked to realise this (perhaps I’m being naive and it should have been obvious with the amount of inhalers I’m on …..sirdupla,
spiriva
respimat and regular courses of prednisolone I have.) it states on the card I’m at risk of adrenal crisis.

Not sure what to do
P.S I take
Spiriva
, Flutiform, and Alvesco. I'm doubled up on inhalers and have been for 2 weeks.

Short Synacthen Test for AI
I am also on
Spiriva
Respimat 2 puffs morning, as well as ipratropium (Atrovent) and salbutamol via nebuliser 3-4 times daily (as well as other asthma meds). I have been told that these are ok to continue.

Switch to MART fostair from seretide
Having been on seretide 250mg for a good few years, as well as added in
spiriva
respimat, fexofenadine, montelukast and nasal spray (recent change to dymista), have been switched onto fostair 100/6 MART. According to my plan, its 2 puffs twice daily, plus an extra 4 as and when.

Post steroud wean or Ipratropium side effects? - nausea, dizziness, fatigue
I know that Ipratropium is a similar drug to my
spiriva
, and the asthma nurse said I shouldn't need both but it's not impossible to be on both. But, I tried not taking my
spiriva
for 2 mornings, but by the third morning, I felt really rough and my chest felt really heavy.

My Asthma
I have had my inhalers changed to
Spiriva
once a day and my seretide disk inhaler changed to puffer inhaler so I can use my spacer. I have now been seen at the hospital and they have recommended I see the physio and try some breathing exercises They are thinking it may be pollen related .

Do I need to restart prednisolone after a few episodes of breathlessness?
😬 My usual inhaler is Duoresp 320 2 puffs twice a day;
Spiriva
since beginning of March and Montelukast added nearly 3 weeks ago.

Doctor saying it isn't asthma, but I'm not really following what he says
Gp also doesn't like that I've been put on
spiriva
respimat, but they put me on that because they thought post nasal drip was causing issues. This year my asthma has seemed wayyyyy more erratic than ever before. Advice or words of wisdom greatly appreciated.

Spriva for Asthma
I have been prescribed for my 4 lung problems but the specialist says that I do not have COPD but has prescribed
Spiriva
but when I research this drug it says that it is not for asthma and only for COPD.
