FDA and Long Acting Bronchodilators
It struck me from my own experience and reading some of the posts on here that GPs are rather quick to prescribe serevent/
symbicort
and the like and keep you on them. I've gone back to my steroid inhaler at a higher dose without an LABD (after a nasty time with
symbicort
) and feel ok with it.

Does anyone else take amitriptyline and Symbicort together?
I am probably being really paranoid but on the information leaflet, for
Symbicort
, it says to use with caution if you take amitriptyline. I have been using a 10mg dose to help me sleep for a while and am also on
Symbicort
recently changed from Seretide.

Increased uncontrolled heart rate and symbicort 400/12
Hi everyone, I’ve been taking 400/12
Symbicort
for two years on the recommendation of well known chest prof and one who I trust for severe atopic asthma symptom relief and overall asthma control. This combination drug has really helped me concerning daytime control of asthma symptoms.

Symbicort SMART Programme
Hi Just wondering if anyone out there is on the
Symbicort
SMART programme. After much consideration my chest physician decided that I might be a ""suitable candidate"" for this treatment.

triggers
His medication is Singulair 10 mg daily - Uniphyllin 200mg twice daily -
Symbicort
up to 12 doses a day. Every three/four weeks since July he has had to have oral steroids for 7 days. His asthma is clearly not controlled properly and he is awaiting another appointment with specialist. Any advice?

Query in taking preventer
I am on
Symbicort
Turbohaler 400/12 and my doctor has increased my dosage to 4 inhalations in the morning and evening + two inhalations of Brycanil four times per day and also as required. This is sort of keeping me under control however my PF is only averaging 370 down from 500.

Pulmicort
Hi All, I've recently been prescribed pulmicort (400) as an addition to
symbicort
to use for 3-5 days at a time when peak flow drops (if no effect to see nurse after this point) as I've been having a hard time at night for a while and thanks to AUK now realise my lungs should be better controlled!
