Symbicort -- If you don't know, now you know

[raycosta77]

My symbicort is not counting the doses left. It's a new one and I took six inhalations so far and still stuck at 60.

[dannyledwith21]

@raycosta77 maybe take it to the pharmacy where you got it and ask for a new one

I tried symbicort for the first time today. Working well so far and no problems to report. Finest inhaler I have ever used so far! I hope it continuously work this good.

hi im planning to try symbicort but i have a inhaler but when ever i use it, it doesnt do its job would that medication help me? also how much is it?

[Pitbullover1027]

@Dannyledwith21 I suffer from Asthma I'm not sure if my Asthma is as controlled as I think. I can run during track practice but I use my inhaler before practice and I feel good my breathing starts to get heavy after I run a lot and I have to slow it down by breathing through my nose and out my mouth. I've been having a lot of problems with my Asthma I'm on Ventolin HFA it's a rescue inhaler I'm not on any controller meds though.

my symbicort isn't working for me any more =( it was great at first but i know when i go back they will increase it...its getting kind of frustrating i just want it to get better and i looked up the side affects of symbicort and one of the side affect was worsting asthma....I have to ask a lot of questions at my next appointment.

[dannyledwith21]

@IamMusic247 i'm sorry to hear that. i'd be interested to know what your doctor has to say at your next appointment. keep me updated please. thank you

Thanks for the info, I know you did this last year, but it's very helpful for me now.

[yahssis]

no, don't use Symbicort for an asthma attack and please bring your inhaler with you everywhere or your epi pen. It is so dangerous to leave home without those things.

[bleunanane]

I have asthma as well ahaha. You're cute :)

[msjefferson224]

...and umm... I like your videos...keep making videos it could help lots of people with CF...住み続ける...^_^

[msjefferson224]

I'm using symbicort also 2 puffs twice a day and at the same time for emergency... but it isn't look like yours... i think yours is cooler than mine. I need to forcefully inhale the powder and I super its side effect, needs to gargle every after I used symbicort. >.<

[dannyledwith21]

@msjefferson224 hmmm that's odd. maybe ask for the "red one" i know several drugs are different based on what color they are. the specifics for the red one are "160/4.5" and it has 120 puffs in it

[msjefferson224]

@dannyledwith21 yeah it was red symbicort turbohaler... but yours is easy to use 'cuz it's spray no need to inhale forcefully. Sometimes during my asthma attack I have difficulties both exhaling and inhaling and my chest hurts when I take a deep breath. T_T not just that I also have some side effects like oral thrush... and i thought that your symbicort is better than my mine.

[dannyledwith21]

@msjefferson224 that sounds a lot like the pulmicort turbohaler to me. i don't like that either!

[msjefferson224]

@dannyledwith21 yeah, they're look a like it but its Symbicort 200/6 turbuhaler from Astra Zeneca. I wish I could stop using this kind of medication but my Asthma is really not stable and I suffer a lot of its side effects. Not just Asthma I also have MVP. But we're gonna keep living ey... heheh...^_^

[circaboy]

@dannyledwith21 nah i know what he means i have the same thing (im in canada) its exaclty like pulmicort but its red and its symbicort
