Inhalers
Hi, all. I have been reading some good things about this relatively new COPD drug Anoro Ellipta. Has anyone tried it? And, if so, what are your thoughts? I currently am taking Spiriva Respimat and Symbicort, with Ventolin as my rescue inhaler, and I am finding that I'm using the Ventolin more than I

Use of ventolin inhaler
Hello. My Auntie is 80 years old. She has advanced Alzheimer's and dementia. She is wheezing quite a bit when breathing at the moment. She has a ventolin inhaler. A student nurse who helps to care for my Auntie has said that we are probably best giving her the inhaler every four hours for the next few

Being nebuliser in A &E
When I had my asthma attack recently I went to A &E and was treated with a neubliser. The nurse who gave it to me was just going to set it up and leave me to it. I did stop here before she just set it up and asked a few questions. I never had this treatment before but have been aware of it through this

Another trip to A&E
Last night I woke up with the beginnings of an asthma attack at 12:30 am. My throat was really itchy and I started to cough. I gave myself ventolin 2 puffs initial then 2 more etc til I got to 10. Still no improvement but peak flow was perfect. So got up and found my husband who hadn't gone to bed

Opinion please
Hi guys, I was diagnosed with copd stage 2 a week ago when I went for an asthma check up. The nurse did a Peak Flow on me which was 350 and a FEV which was 52, she then passed me to the doctor who took my sats which were 97 and then put me on Fostair inhaler along with my usual Ventolin and Uniphyllin

Antihistamine with asthma meds
Hello everyone I have just started taking budesonide morning & night. I use ventolin as well when needed. The weather here in the south of Spain is warming up & the flowers are starting to bloom, a sign of Spring. I am allergic to pollen. Can I take histamines while also taking the asthma meds? Thanks

Tested positive for coronavirus hku1, not sure if that's relevant. Not usually asthmatic, but hospital suspect asthma.... although until recently been running

Oxygen sats
Random question, does anyone know how much oxygen saturation should change during exercise, if at all? I have asthma and am struggling with strenuous exercise despite using ventolin before exercise, warming up slowly, and exercising inside. I'm not even working out at full capacity. I start ok then

Hi Im new to this site. Seeking advise re asthma & anxiety
Back in 2014 my asthma was totally under control. The only time I needed ventolin was if I had a chest infection. In August I burnt myself out overdoing things and crashed. Numerous blood tests came back normal. My asthma symptoms slowly got worse and I started on 2 preventors. I tried to keep up with

Your Meds (Strong Recommendation)
Hi I have a 'strong' recommendation for you, but first an explanation. In addition to reading the Patient Information Leaflet, I've now taken to checking the Drugs.com Website for each Med I'm prescribed. As you may know, Drug Interactions, Incorrect Drug Doses, Patient Drug Errors, Wrongly Prescribed

Thank you :) (For everyone who helped on my most recent post)
I just wanted to thank everyone for all your responses and advice over the last few days - if nothing else it's kept my sanity in check!! ;) I can't figure out if posting this as a comment below my latest post would mean you'd all get to read it or not, so decided I'd start a new post - hope that's ok

Find Clenil and Serevent more effective than Fostair?
Hi, I have been trying (with the help of my asthma nurse) to find the right combination for me since December. My best weeks so far (hardly using my Ventolin) were when using 6 puffs a day of Clenil 100 and two puffs a day of Serevent. However when my nurse suggested that I start to slowly reduce my
