I am currently suffering with really severe SOB I can't breathe out. This is my 3rd attack in 6 months. I have had asthma since birth and been on reliever and preventer

Broncholidator Reversibility Test
Hi, I posted a few days ago about my team wanting to do a broncholidator reversibility test and FeNO before they put me forward for biologics. I wasn't going to do the test, then decided to do it, incase it did show reversibility to save time waiting for a referral to Wynthenshawe as my current hospital

Queries as newly diagnosed
Hi all, I'm a regular on other forums as I have lupus and APS. After a recent nasty virus (poss Covid) I was diagnosed with asthma. I'm having real difficulties, despite being prescribed Salamol (which I'm not sure is working as well as the ventolin) and a preventer (fine). Because I generally

Salmon v Ventolin
Hi, I am still using any ventolin I can find including unopened boxes from my mum whom died last year. When I have previously been given Salbutamol it has never worked on an asthma attack and have always ended up being admitted to hospital. For a long time I insisted there is such an obvious difference

Puzzled by a past asthma attack experience
Around about 2019 I was staying at Harewood near Leeds visiting my parents. I was with a friend and when we were there we enjoyed exploring the Harewood Estate. Tucked away in the woods there, there is the original Harewood Castle which looks like a freestanding keep and is quite awe inspiring. To access

how long do doctors expect your asthma inhalers to last ? sabutamol Or ventolin inhalers ??
hi I’m not sure if anyone or even an asthma nurse on here can help me. I have had asthma since childhood and it was not until the age of 19 I was put on monteluask tablets that I was controlled. Back in 2017 I had what I thought was a chest infection and for the next 2 yrs has breathing / no air constant

Yendo’s history with lung problems.
Diagnosed with asthma in 1972 and started on Ventolin. In 1987 I was rushed to hospital after suffering a severe asthma attack caused after taking two aspirin pills. Previously, I had been taking aspirin for years with no adverse reactions, but I was told that allergies can begin at any time of life.

What to do after prednisolone rescue ended?
Has anyone any advice how to get back down to my normal dose of inhaled steroid after a short prednisolone course and chest infection please? Story: I’m maintained on 1 or 2 puffs once a day of Alvesco 80, PF max 380 and very occasional use of Ventolin. I caught a cold virus about 12 days ago and despite

Salamol not as good!
I have tried to get on with Salamol but it just doesn’t work as well for me as Salbutamol. My asthma attacks always quickly abated with Ventolin but the new Salamol not only takes ages to ease my asthma attacks, but more often than not it just doesn’t work at all!I also feel as though I have not inhaled

Prednisolone.. ventolin with symbicort.
Does anyone with copd and asthma use Predisolone, I was told just recently by a specialist that they can't prescribe them for these conditions. Though I have been using them for about 9 years now and every other doctor has prescribed them for me. My condition has worsen over the last few years and I

Inhaled bicarbonate
Hi everyone! I recently saw a severe asthma specialist who prescribed me inhaled bicarbonate to use with my nebulizer (it's in liquid form) when my asthma is flaring. I have done it a few days in a row and have been pleasantly surprised by how nice it feels. It's not a replacement for ventolin but the

Coughing badly after virus ...
Hi allI had a really nasty cold/cough which has left me with a bad cough and a flare up of asthma. Currently on holiday in India and although I am taking Fostair with a a couple of shots of ventolin inbetween, the cough is not dissipating. It's particularly bad at night. The pollution in India is bad

Re ventolin
Hi Ollie 1976I can't really help as I can't use ventolin as I get horrendous palpitations from it. I have an inhaler called symbicort, it is a dry powder inhaler & is a combined preventer and emergency treatment like ventolin. Sorry I can't help cheers Irene.

Multiple short courses of steroids for cough
Hi all, My 8 year old suffers from what we think is cough variant asthma. Any viral infection (colds etc) just sets-off a horrible cascading coughing that just gets worse and worse over 3-4 days, until we need to give oral steroids. We often blast him with Ventolin (as much as 8-10 puffs every 4 hrs

Ventolin versus Salamol reliever inhalers
I’ve just checked and both
Ventolin
and Salamol have exactly the same propellant :
HFA
134a which is cfc free. Therefore the climate argument lacks credibility.
