Fostair

02/03/2018 | | 64moderated by Philip
beclometasone dipropionate, formoterol fumarate dihydrate (100/6) for asthma

I have had mild asthma for over 30 years(I'm 64) and have always used brown and blue inhalers. Brown preventers never really worked so I used 3 to 4 puffs of the reliever a day. Three months ago my new GP prescribed Fostair and from the first puff I have had no wheeziness at all, not even a trace of it. GP prescribed 4 puffs a day which I cut down to 2 after a month then to just one. Occasionally I even forget to take just the one puff with no return to wheeziness. I am now thinking of reducing to one puff every other day. There have been no side effects and to me, this has been a 100% success.

I am experiencing exactly the same. I started on 2 puffs twice daily and reduced that by half. I am no longer needing my reliever inhaler and so far am delighted with fostair.
