symbicort and ventolin

When you get an attack of asthama, start with ventolin and symbicort. Drink coffee, if you feel like. If you feel that your asthma is aggravating, get hospitalized and get salbutamol nebulization.

g montelukast, ventolin inhaler and symbicort. Xray for the sinus and chest were also ordered which resulted to bilateral nasal congestion and clear chest. The problem is, I have been experiencing symptom of dizziness. Its been a month now and I could not take it anymore. As if I am floating always. Please, could you help me with my concern?. . Thank you in advance.

Symbicort has a counter, too. When it gets to the yellow area time to refill prescription...haha. I've also had problems because my Proair was low. I agree that rescue inhalers should have counters...people don't have running tallies in their head as to how much they've used. If Symbicort and Advair have them, I don't see why Proair, Proventil, etc can't. It doesn't make sense to me, either.

Hi, I used to be on Qvar and Ventolin, I recently changed doctors and explained to my dr that I had been needing my ventolin up to 10 times per day, even if all I was doing was sitting on thr lounge. He prescribed me with the symbicort turbuhaler and I have one puff off this once a day and in the past 2 months that I have been on it, I have pretty much forgotten that I am asthmatic, even through the extreme cold in the last couple of weeks.

Is it normal that I experience air hunger (shortness of breath), chest pains, and dizziness even though I'm on Symbicort (2x daily) and Ventolin (supposed to be 4x daily, but only take it 2x, or when needed)? I've been diagnosed with asthma last month and I haven't had my appointment with a specialist yet. I find the inhalers help a lot, if I don't take them I experience worst symptoms of shortness of breath, chest pains and dizziness.

Initially it started with allergies,then asthma.....initial days my ventolin and formoterol inhalers were working, but last 3 years it is not helping much... I checked FEV which is 68% of predicted...but no significant increase in FEV1 after bronchodialator.... Every day I feel little tightnes, even if I take symbicort...daily moring and evening..... saw pulmonologyst 5 months back, he suggested to continue with the same+singulair.... Feeling very desprate....please help with some suggestions.

night) to help and he also gave me Ventolin, but just for an emergency and said to only use it if I had to (I haven't used it yet). He said with some people who have allergies, they have issues emptying their lungs, getting the air out. He only gave me enough for one month, but I'm wondering if the Symbicort is the best thing. I find it kind of helps, but I feel like maybe I have a sinus infection or something.

If you do not get that up, you could start having leg cramps. Advair and Symbicort can cause potassium and calcium levels to drop causing cramps. Take care and feel better.

Hi i am having throat tightness everyday for 15 years. I am regularly using Ventloin, Fomertrol+budesonide and Motelukast+LC. The only problem is breathlessness arising from throat tightness. I never wheeze in the life. The throat tightness is getting reduced when i take Ventolin. The doctor say i don't have to take ventolin beacause Fomertrol+budesonide and Motelukast+LC. will prevent the difficulty. But only medicines which seems to be working is Ventolin and Motelukast+LC.

The pulmonologist gave me ventolin and then he gave me Symbicort 80/4.5. I only used it for a week because it raised my resting heart rate. I have had episodes of Ventricular tachycardia so I am afraid to use the symbicort. I wonder if Singulair will help?

Advair HFA, alvesco and any HFA inhalers are lactose free. Puli org, symbicort, any disk inhalers or rotatable ones a Have lactose in them. I did have to fight to get my doctor to believe me and switch my inhaler but proved it once I was off for a few months - improved and then did spirometry before and after taking symbicort ... Guess what? My peak flow DROPPED, then they believed me :) You can be allergic to ventolin itself but there are other medication you can try.

This pregnancy, my asthma has flared up for weeks and has gone from moderately severe to severe. I just saw my pulmonologist for the first time today, and he prescribed me Symbicort, which is safe and I was not at all concerned about. I now have monthly appts with him to monitor my asthma throughout my pregnancy. My question is: Did an increase in severity of your asthma cause you to become high risk?

Hi, thanks for replying my inhalers are symbicort attrovent,ventolin I cant remember my test results as i did not understand them I recently started smoking again since I had pneumonia in January I have had bronchitus, in march plerucy and now nov have a chest infection at the moment they have given me steroids and antibiotics

hi, I have had chronic asthma since I was 3 months old. Over the last couple of weeks my asthma has been a little rocky, probably due to allergies. On the weekend, I was out with some friends and took a few puffs from a cigar we were sharing, but didn't really inhale any of it. Since then my chest has been super tight and I've been coughing badly, and my ventolin and symbicort don't seem to be helping. Will this heal in time, or do I need to go to the hospital?

I'm a 44-year old female, with asthmatic allergic response to cats since childhood. I smoked off and on from 18-39, about 5 pack-years. I've lived near a cat (outdoors with access to my husband's study) for 18 years, and have treated my asthma with albuterol, adding ventolin when necessary. About 12 weeks ago I caught bronchitis, then wildfires broke out near my home that made the air unhealthy for about 2 weeks. This provoked a severe asthma attack -- for three weeks.

I have a change that needed to be addressed, The steroid inhaler mentioned above: "Ventolin by GlaxoSmithKline" is incorrect and should be Symbicort 80/4.5 2 puffs BID.

I have shortness of breath and pain in the lung/ back area. I am on spiriva, symbicort, ventolin, levalbuteral, and 800 ibuprofen. This has been going on for 5 months. X- ray was clear two months ago. All blood labs and cultures clear. My doctors do not know what to do for me? I'm constantly tired and in pain and short of breath. I'm 25, and should not be this sick!

I take my Symbicort 400/12 inhaler twice in the morning and twice in the evening and I also use my Ventolin inhaler frequently throughout the day. This condition is really affecting my quality of life and I wondered if anyone can suggest what treatment might improve my condition. Thanks for any suggestions.

She has put me on Ventolin (to use as required) and Symbicort (one puff in the morning and one in the evening) to assist me with my breathing until I recover from this cold. I am seeing my usual GP next week but I am very concerned that this could be a sign of COPD as I used to be a smoker for 22 years and quit 4 months ago . Can someone please give me some advice?

I developed asthma when I was 27 or 28 years old. It started after I had a cold. I severe asthma, and I am on Singulair and Symbicort. If your coughing does not get better, I would make an appointment with your doctor and see if you could get tested to see if you have asthma. It is a simple test that your physician can do in his/her office. If you do have true asthma, I would get him/her to give you an inhaler to try out.

t quite sure myself about the Symbicort and blood sugar levels, so I did a little research and here is a link to what I found - it comes directly from the Symbicort website. http://www.mysymbicort.com/asthma/index.aspx?source=20048&WT.
