Does Anyone Use Pro Air Respiclick? I Have Been Given A Trial Inhaler And Not Sure Yet How Much To Use. I'm Only Using It Twice A Day.
I have used Pro Air or Ventolin for quite some time as back up inhalers when I over do.
Have used respiclick for a few years . It is just another brand of albuterol.
Is Pro Air Respaclick A Rescue Inhaler ?
is it used when you get a breathing spell.
Yes!
Hands Shake
Could it be my breathing treatments?
Currently with the nebulizer 4 times a day. Ipratropium/Bromude and Albuterol. Followed by Symbacort 2 puffs BID.
ProAir RespiClick and Proventil. All 2 are rescue inhalers. I'm working with my pulmnary Dr. to see which rescue is best for me.

I too use Trilogy. I still think there has to be other treatments. I have cops and asthma
Symbicort Versus Perforomist
My doctor is thinking about changing me from Symbicort to Perforomist nebulizer so insurance will cover it. Anyone have and pros or cons about this change? I am unsure because I know nothing about the Perforomist. Please help me understand more about this change, if you will, and thank you. God bless.

Flying With COPD
Hi, I have COPD with an FEV1 of about 50 percent. I take daily Breo, Spiriva Respirmat, and occasionally ProAir. When flying cross-country (from CA to NY and back) and especially on an international flight, I sometimes get short of breath, especially when leaving my seat. I find this situation scary.
