I'm having trouble with breathing and have been using Seroflo but recently switched to Foromonide Rotocap. Can you help me understand how these two differ? I'm curious if there are specific advantages or anything important I should know about using Formonide compared to Seroflo.

Seroflo (Salmeterol + Fluticasone) and Formonide (Formoterol + Budesonide) are both combination inhalers that help manage asthma and COPD symptoms. They both contain a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) and a corticosteroid. Formonide might act faster due to the Formoterol but both medications provide long-term relief when used regularly

View allI've been experiencing this weird chest congestion and discomfort for about six months now. I went to see a cardiologist and got an echo test done, and they said my heart is fine. There's no pain coming from the heart area either. But this annoying chest pressure just keeps coming and going. It's not interfering with my daily activities, but I have been feeling more tired than usual. Breathing isn't an issue, thankfully. However, today I noticed a sore throat along with the chest congestion. There's no mucus with blood or anything alarming like that, but the discomfort is still there from my throat to my chest. Could you offer some advice on this?

Hey, I'm wondering about using a nebulizer for someone with an oxygen level of 92-93% without a mask. The doctor mentioned Duolin and Budecort. Should these be mixed together when using the nebulizer or should they be administered separately?
You can mix Duolin and Budecort in the nebulizer, as they are often used together to help with breathing. However, it's important to follow your doctor's instructions on the exact doses and timing. If his oxygen levels are 92-93 without the mask, it might be worth monitoring closely and considering supplemental oxygen as advised by the doctor.
