i've changed again, now on Symbicort, Salbutamol with an aerochamber and montelukast 10mg. I prefer the aerochamber myself, it's a lot more discreet, but i don't like using it infront of people because if you breath wrongly it makes a noise. Becca |

Eugh my preventer has been changed now, i now have Qvar 50 aerosol, and have to take 2 puffs morning and night, My nurse was actually kind to me for once, The reason why i have been told to take 2 puffs morn and night, is cos i suffer from bad breathlessness and still been told to use my preventer with an aerochamber what do you prefer? aerochambers or the spacer? |

I'm in the middle meds change but at the moment i'm on symbicort (combined inhaler) which is a turbohaler and salbutamol autohaler. I have an aerochamber from when i was on beclamethasone and serevent mdi's. I used to have a volumatic which i hated cos it was huge. |

Ive just switched from a ventilon (ones you have to press) to a turbohaler (dry powder) I have been using it for 2 days now, and it is alot easier. My nurse was very helpful and helped a tonne, try to ask about it more with your doctor?? That helped with me. The small spacers aren't for smaller children, I was offered one and I'm 11! Hoped that helped, -x-Bee-x- |

i have a spacer too, but maybe the smaller ones are especially for smaller children, although im not too sure. i also have aerosol inhalers, although to start with i did have both easy-breath (which i found didnt actually help) and then i had another diffrent one which i cant remeber whats it was called. all very strange... emz x x |

Im really confused, there r soo many inhalers, so y do i get the 1s that u have 2 press, instead of turbo halers etc. when i mention dry powder inhlers 2 my docter he acts like theirs no such thing. Also i have 1 of those big spacers not the small ones like aerochambers. Y? |
