Adding combivent for prolonged asthma flare
I'm currently taking proair,
symbicort
and prednisone 20mg twice a day. I'll be finished up with the prednisone in a few days. I also had a steriod shot last week, along with a Z pack of antibiotics. The combivent seems to be helping.

Asthma or Acid Re-flux or both, and issues using symbicort turbo inhaler.
I continued with the
symbicort
for a few weeks and then as my breathing became better I stopped because of this hoarse throat.

Is this your experience?
I'm a 55 year old female who was diagnosed with asthma seven years ago and I'm on
Symbicort
200 as preventer and reliever. My asthma manifests itself in that if I'm doing anything energetic I'm puffing and get out of breath, to the extent that others pass comment.

After chatting to the community I decided on a GP visit which ended up with new meds Sirdupla
And I could have similar side effects as
symbicort
with hoarse throat and possibly mouth thrush so plenty of rinsing and teeth brushing after each use which is two puffs first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

Immune System
I have had asthma since a small child (now 46) and it is really quite well controlled on
Symbicort
, Ventolin and occasionally Pred. I keep on picking up every cold and bug going and I wondered if any of you have any suggestions for improving my immune system?

Alternative to symbicort?
My GP gave me a short course of oral steroids and then changed the clenil to
symbicort
turbo inhaler 200/6. I am experiencing quite a few side effects from the
symbicort
and wondered if there is an alternative? When I saw my GP she suggested lowering the dose but then my asthma got worse again.

Chest infection? Again? (Warning this is long)
I have been tracking my peak flow which has always been 500 and always 550, 15 mins after
symbicort
(does this indicate something) I took this morning and it's down to 430-450 it's never been this low before.

Symbicort 200/6
Hi i was on
symbicort
200/6 for a bout a year then the Dr put me on dueoresp and it gave me really back panic attacks. I only took it for a month and a half. Told the Dr i was refusing to use it cause of this. Now I'm back on the
symbicort
and that's doing the same but not as bad.

Hello 🙂
I have tried the brown inhaler (sorry I forgot the name of it) and also
Symbicort
but neither has helped me. I have been told by the Dr its Asthma related but no firm diagnosis. I have been waiting for a follow up appointment for nearly a year now!

Hay fever suggestions appreciated
I have been prescribed
symbicort
(red inhaler), as other 2 inhalers were not helping. I have been on the
symbicort
for 10 days and it has limited effect. I have never smoked and used to undertake triathlons, but struggle to do any real exercise now, as I cough and can not get breath.
