Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
have had asthma since 1970...but its come back now that i m in my 50 s. Why did they stop making the sprays..they worked..seems odd that when a product works its removed from use, and then you folks make new ones that have a million side effects. Thats just not right.
Sir; Its not like that....today asthamatic can live easily with small rotahaler or sustain released patches. Inpast year there used to be big mdi or spacer but now its onlya small inhaler like a simple stick. Regarding drug molecules alot newer molecules have been introduced that nearly dont have side effect like formoterol in place of salbutamol or budesonide as inhaled steroid. I recommend u to visita physician and geta permanent treatment schedule for ur asthma. Wish u a healthy life. Thanks
