spiriva

Avatar n tn Yes, there are. Spiriva® HandiHaler® (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder) is one and Serevent® Inhalation Aerosol (salmeterol xinafoate) another. Each is a bronchodilator and capable of giving good relief of shortness of breath.
Avatar m tn I take Spiriva Respimat (tiotropium bromide) 2.5 mcg/actuation, and Wixela (fluticasone propionate salmeterol inhalation powder) for my COPD. Is there a sequence I should be taking these meds in? Is there a time frame I should use between the two meds?
Avatar n tn This would include a long-acting bronchodilator, such as Serevent® Inhalation Aerosol (salmeterol xinafoate), Foradil® Aerolizer™ (formoterol fumarate inhalation powder) or Spiriva® HandiHaler® (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder) along with an inhaled steroid. Another potentially helpful, oral medicine is called theophylline. Your doctor may also want to prescribe this. You should have your blood oxygen level checked, in case it is low and you would need supplemental oxygen.
Avatar f tn If from the lungs, you could be experiencing Spiriva® HandiHaler® (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder) withdrawal symptoms, depending on what type of lung problem was being treated with the Spiriva® HandiHaler® (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder). These symptoms, along with your arms feeling weak and heavy, could all be due to anxiety, but could also be symptoms of more serious disease of the heart or lungs. For that reason, you do need to see your doctor to sort this out.
Avatar f tn Spiriva® HandiHaler® (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder) has a maximum duration of action of about 36 hours. To be safe, you would want to be off the medicine for 48 to 72 hours before the spirometry. It would have been preferable, but not mandatory to do the pulmonary function tests (PFTs) at the time the diagnosis of chronic lung disease was made especially if the diagnosis was unequivocal. The other important question would be, “Why 3 CT scans, presumably of your lungs, in 16 months?
Avatar n tn is it okay to use albuterol sulfate inhalation solution .083 % even if its out of code? I have real bad asthma and I got a serve cold and cant afford to go to doctor.
Avatar n tn Xopenex® Inhalation Solution (levalbuterol) is a short acting inhaled medicine, a rescue medicine, with fewer side effects than similar medicines used for the relief of acute asthma symptoms. It is not a medicine well-suited for long term, sustained asthma control. There are other classes of asthma medicines, called controller medicines and these do not have the same excitatory side effects.
Avatar n tn I have tried oral antihistamines, steam inhalation, and recently a Neti Pot with the provided salt solution, and nothing has even made a dent. Any feedback would be great. If I should get myself to a doctor, it would be at the VA because that is the only medical insurance I have. Thank you.
Avatar n tn i want to cut back on eating but having to take this med every day will not help me, please suggest s solution.
Avatar m tn My question is, is there any general method to synthesis an inhalation solution, mine would be strictly vitamin and herbal based and targeted to help treat asthmatic sypmtoms, the solution would be used in a nebulizer, and would it be safe to use a vit/herb liquid solution to breath in?
3926262 tn?1350439336 If you put them in your nose and they drain down the back of the nose and mouth (they eventually do this) and then take a deep inhalation, you could get them in your lungs and develop lipid pneumonia. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/petroleum-jelly/an00947 Saline solution or spray is safe or water based products are safe. The saline spray burned my nostrils so I did not use it. I sort of just had a very crispy inner nose. Eventually it subsided and my noe was not so dry.
Avatar f tn I found many People with same problem but didnt find a solution. I tried changing my diet to healty and didnt work. I was regularly taking zinc, potassium, calcium, sets of vitamins and minerals. Nothing really happend. I dont Think its normal, if you know what is this please help me.
Avatar n tn You and he/she will have to resort to other preparations, to include a different inhaled steroid, such as Flovent® HFA Inhalation Aerosol (fluticasone propionate), either alone or in combination with a long-acting bronchodilator, like Serevent® Inhalation Aerosol (salmeterol xinafoate) or Foradil® Aerolizer™ (formoterol fumarate inhalation powder), such a combination being either Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Aerosol or Symbicort® (budesonide/formoterol fumarat
677938 tn?1226344160 I Use An Albuterol Inhalation.And Everytime I Have An Asthma Attack I Use It And It Feels Like I Cant Catch My Breath..Whats Going On? Its Had Me In The Hospital Many Of Time ??
Avatar n tn I would just focus on catching my breath and within about 10 minutes I would be fine. I went running the day after the initial inhalation and noticed that my airways were extremely restricted but not enough to stop me. After I was done my workout I was very hoarse and had more trouble than normal in regaining my breath. So I rested for about 4 or 5 days and was breathing normally and fine. I decided to go running again last night (about a week after initial inhalation.
Avatar n tn Did it really stop the fibreglass problem.
Avatar m tn Cause of low DLCO and drop in it from test 1 to test 1? I am currently on tiotropium bromide and salmeterol/fluticasone propionate. My reason for posting this is one doc is pessimistic and the other highly optimistic. Thank you.
Avatar f tn Spiriva contains tiotropium bromide which is an anticholinergic bronchodilator. So, yes, both have action against acetylcholine recptors and both are efefctive bronchodilators. You can take any one of them. Indacaterol is an ultra-long-acting beta-adrenoceptor agonist. So, it gives bronchodialation for a much longer time. It is a more recent drug so long term efficacy data are not available. However, available data does show a marked benefit in individuals with COPD.
Avatar n tn And you need your physician to prescribe TWO solutions. Ipratropium Bromide inhalation solution .02 (0.5 mg/vial) and Albuterol Sulfate Inhalation solution (O.83%). There are severalissues.You will eventually acustum yourself to these solutions and they will stop working.You should have at least two weeks.Probably months, but at least two weeks before this happens. The Albuterol will make you "antsy" and nervous. If it gets too bad try the Ipratroprium alone.
Avatar f tn Probably, a viral infection has caused the same. I do not feel you need to do much except take some steam inhalation. The dizziness that you felt is likely due to the blockage of the tube that connects the oral cavity to the ear. I am sure steam inhalation will help you. If you also get fever, I’ll suggest to consult a physician and maybe you’ll need a course of antibiotics. I hope that helps. Please do keep me posted. Kind Regards.
Avatar n tn I was a bit drunk at a party and went to light a cigarette, but it was windy and I accidentally inhaled some of the fumes when the flame went out due to inattention. Should I be concerned? I've felt a tad out of it, but I don't know if that's from worrying about this or from the inhalation. I just don't know how toxic a gasp of butane is, and the internet is mostly filled with horror stories about huffing.
Avatar f tn Hi kindd, Thanks for the quick reply. U've mentioned lots of things. And the surroundings of the illness which i didn't know. I'm gonna start them today onwards. I also think the steam inhalation is a better solution. I'll start it and try to reduce cetrizine usage and let u guys knw how it goes. I've already controlling my meals by not taking cool drinks etc. apart from that, if u do hsve any other information, do let me knw, Thank you very much again!
Avatar n tn For the first three weeks I just eliminated the six foods said to be the worst for my type, and I knew I had a solution to my problem (my brain was working). Other allergies I had are lessened. My energy level is superb for my age. I no longer have muscle stiffness, and I am much healthier than I was 20 years ago. This is a FREE strategy.
Avatar m tn Try steam inhalation, saline nasal drops, breathing exercises, and oral antihistamine medications and see if they help. Let us know about what your doctor tells you and keep us posted on how you are doing. Hope this helps. Good luck.
