Fostair 200/6

Hi All,

I was recently put on Fostair 200/6 but have found that it only seems to help for a few mins then I have a slight laboured breathing issue. It feels as though my breathing is quite heavy, I can still take a deep breath in but not sure if I'm having an attack and should go to a&e, no wheezing though. Does it take time for the body to get used to Fostair? I've only been on it for 2 days. My chest just feels warm when breathing. Have a humidifier and a fan that does seem to help a bit.

Thanks

Hi I was put on this about 6 weeks ago & had a similar experience & asked about time for it to kick in. It did take about 3 weeks for me to see an improvement but things are on the whole definitely better now. Hope things settle for you.
