For those who use rescue inhalers (i.e. Respimat, ProAir, Ventolin...how often do you use and how does it help you?
Not as much as I should, but I’m home bound so I figure my other meds sustain me thru the day. That said, if I go to my car or go outside for a bit I’ll use it before going out it helps in between meds schedule to help me breathe a little easier. Although, nothing works great.
I use mix of budesonide and fermetorol-1mg 2ml with a gap of every 12 hours-7am then 7pm. In India, I purchase from Glenmark pharma with the brand name of Nebzmart FB. I also use alongwith Nebzmart G 25MCG.
Spiolto Respimat is the preventer I use taking two puffs every morning. Ventolin I take whenever I feel extremely breathless. Use to be on the odd occasion but lately am taking two or three times a day. The weather is crazy here at the moment with lots of dust and pollen in the wind and the odd storm
Ty for hugs all

Hi I use Ventolin 2 puffs morning night , but it’s mainly a Emergency use but I find especially spring summer be prepared in advance seems work for me so I use as I said 2 puffs with my Serentide morning & Night ,, then carry & use as much as I need if I get attack from lack of Air or wheezing ect I am 66 born with Asthma so I’m my childhood there was nothing , so I’m very grateful for all there is I had Dr sit with me over night so many times up to 14 then it went away for 10 years came back with vengeance but panic attacks when having asthma attacks are where it gets dangerous I have used A& E as Pit stop to survive at times but now have my own oxegen bottles which truly makes my life a lot less stressful , keep safe I truly belive lerning to meditate & stay away from people who cause me stress has made my life so much safer & much much happier , but I am a stress monkey as my friends tease me but I only hang out with my friends family I very rare hang out with any strangers I value my life but I do all I can I just come back from a canal cruse with my daughter & BFFthey we’re fantastic as I’m very disabled they are so kind & caring that’s what world needs kindness.
