Hello, does ventolin contain ethanol?? I am currently using fostair but since it contains ethanol I cant use it for 24h (I got vaccination). Is it then okay tu use ventolin if needed?

Emphysema
My pip tribunal is tomorrow. I think the dwp is trying to down play the problems i have with my breathing. They stated on their reasons about my claim that a inhaler i was given is used for moderate copd, although i have sent in evidence of my condition that states i have severe emphysema(significant

Worried for the future of Asthmatics
I'm very concerned about a policy shift within my medical practice which I'm told is actually government driven. I'm asthmatic and have been since childhood, it's no big deal, I manage it pretty well but during the course of my day I invariable need to use my Ventolin inhaler. There's triggers I try

Asthma symptoms whilst taking Fostair
Hi, hope you are all doing ok. I’ve got a question I hope you’ll be able to clear up for me. Just before Christmas my meds were swapped from Duoresp spiromax 320/9 2 puff, twice a day, to Fostair on a SMART regime. As I was reducing steroids over the first week, I was told to take 8puffs for 2 weeks

Lung restriction and mucus blocking airways
I’m a 42 year old man. I’ve always had mild asthma since I was a teenager, but had got worse now at 42. I’ve smoked cigarettes a bit in the past and smoked cannabis which hadn’t helped my breathing capacity but I’ve been fairly fit at different stages in my life Where I would jog regularly and use gym

When do I... 🤔🤔
Hi everyone. Another (hopefully quick) infomercial post, to (hopefully) clear up any uncertainties people have about when the should be doing certain things. So without further ado; WHEN DO I TAKE MY RELIEVER? When you’re symptomatic 😉. If you’re in a coughing fit (that feels asthma-ry), wheezing,

Seretide Vs Aloflute
Hello! I’ve been taking seretide and ventolin inhalers as normal for the past 20 years, but the last time I went to pick up my preventer prescription it was Aloflute/generic. I’ve been taking this daily (as normal) for the last month or so and an finding the puff to be really ineffective, not as strong

Asthma control post covid - are my expectations unrealistic?
I had covid in march. My previously well controlled asthma isn't anymore. I am currently on fostair 2 X 200 am and pm, braltus, montelukast, cetirazine, dymista and ventolin. I've had 4 short courses of pred since April and am now on a one month reducing course. I was referred to the local hospital

Detoxing off steroid inhaler... Fostair?! Anybody had experience of this?
Hi All, Does anyone have any experience of coming off steroid inhalers particularly fostair, it didn't agree with me at all, so had to come off it after taking doses for 2 days, but breathing has become quite difficult, which it wasn't when I went on it and I just used to take the blue ventolin inhaler

Peak flow well down too, usually 400 now 284 or there about. Should I be talking to dr again. On oral steroids for one more

Ventolin being stopped for asthma suffers
Happy New Year to everyone Whilst in hospital last week I heard rumors that ventolin was being stopped for asthma use as it is causing deaths. I am 68 years old and when at school some of my friends were asthmatic and used ventolin and still alive thank god. Has anyone heard or read anything about this

A bit fed up
In the context of a global pandemic I probably shouldn’t grumble, but I’m a bit down after a phone consultation with my gp this morning. My asthma was diagnosed as severe after a nasty chest infection and (mild) pneumonia around Christmas 2019. Since then I’ve accumulated medications - now on Fostair

Expecting too much when I’m unfit?
Hi hope everyone is ok, happy New Year! I have been on Fostair 100/6 x 2 puffs twice a day for around 3 weeks. Ventolin as my reliever as required. Overall I thought I was doing a bit better, apart from a saga with a smoking oven over Christmas and a cough on a night but nothing too bad. I’ve started

Ventolin restricted
I’m having a bit of battle with my GP surgery’s pharmacy over the amount of ventolin I’m prescribed. I’ve had 13 vent inhalers since March 20 ( I know it’s a lot), however with frequent flare ups & attacks in the past 12 months they’ve been needed. Vent works and I see a difference but often in a position

Difficult breathing out
This might be a silly thing to ask, but I've always found it difficult to breath out completely. It feel like as I'm breathing out, my pipe suddenly closes and I cannot physically push anymore air out.. this only happens when I'm not feeling great and need my ventolin more. Anyone else feel similar?
