Spacer devices or dry powder inhalers (DPIs) with simpler mechanisms may be more suitable for younger children than conventional metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), which may be difficult for them to use.
When picking out an inhaler, think about how much it will cost, how portable it is, and how easy it is to use. While combination inhalers are convenient for some, others may find that two distinct devices are necessary for both short-term relief and long-term management.
Have you tried instead using a metered dose inhaler that you attach to a aerochamber? It also has a bit of mask, but they only need to breath in and out (normal breathing) for about 10 seconds, while you hold the chamber. And then they are done. It is not strapped around the head. I never used a nebulizer for my daughter as a toddler, as I don't believe it's standard practice in Canada to do so. They will still get their medication in with less side effects.
Hi there!
We have found the all natural saltpipe inhaler to be an effective long-term way to deepen our daughter's lung capacity. In fact, since using it daily to control her asthma, she has not needed any type of steroid therapy for an entire year now. On rare occasion, she still needs a hit of albuterol via her nebulizer but she doesn't need a daily dose of drugs such as administered through metered-dose or dry powder inhalers.
Decadron® (dexamethasone) 4 mg is not the therapeutic equivalent of Kenalog® (triamcinolone acetonide) 80 mg. Using the Lexi-Calc corticosteroid conversion formula, the ratio of the 2 would be close to 5:1. So it would take Decadron® (dexamethasone) 16 mg to be approximately the equivalent of Kenalog® (triamcinolone acetonide) 80 mg.
) But how serious is an allergic reaction to triamcinolone? Or is it the combination of lidocaine and triamcinolone that caused the mess?
For example, if you have asthma and a daily low to medium dose inhaled corticosteroid controls your symptoms, you should use that instead of a combination inhaler with a medium dose inhaled corticosteroid and a long acting bronchodilator. The combination inhaler has more medicine, and all that medicine is unnecessary if your asthma is controlled with a low to medium dose inhaled corticosteroid by itself.
Your doctor has decided that Combivent is appropriate for your condition at this time.
i'm using aerocort inhaler(each actuation deliversBelcomethasone Dipropionate-50mcg;Levosalbutamol Tartrate-50mcg;Absolute alcohol-7.4% v/v suspended in propellant HFA)....i feel problem in breathing 2-3 times a day and i take a dose and taking it for 7-8 years and also have much mucus developed....but "i feel drowsy and headache after taking each dose"..i have to take a light sleep to gain the freshness...what should i do, should i change my inhaler or consult doc.????
Thanks so much, so my nursling's dose is really negligible?
5%w/v, Triamcinolone Acetonide 0.1%w/v, Chlorhexidine HCl 0.5%w/v. The Muco-Aid is a bottle of liquid lotion, which weigh around 8g. I actually used few times in the window period of 12 weeks. Probably few days before testing too, even a day before testing. I cannot remember the exactly when did I put the lotion in my mouth for ulcers.
I have read somewhere that steroid might delay antibodies production of HIV making the test result not accurate. In this case is Triamcinolone Acetonide.
Visual diagnosis 3 years ago as plaque psoriasis in the genital area and prescribed Triamcinolone cream 1%. When I felt itchy, I began using the cream immediately. Within a week to 2 weeks of using a small amount of the cream daily my skin healed. Unfortunately it would recur within about a month. Visited derm dr. recently and he diagnosed as herpes. I have not used the cream and have had a lot of pain and outbreak in the same 2 sites.
OK,
First post on forum. Diabetes for 7 years. Type 2 progressed to full insulin shortly. runs in the family.
Went to a new doctor today and was getting examined and he told me a new treatment was out. He said about an inhaler. Well I know about insulin inhalers but didn't know if they were used much. So I asked them if this was what he was talking about and he said no. He said the medicine reacted with your pancreas.
