Slight Breathing Difficulty
I am a 29 year old male suffering from Allergic rhinitis and Asthma. I got reverse spirometry test and chest x ray 2-3 months back. My FEV1/FVC was 81% and FEV1 was 71%. My chest x ray was normal. Two months ago, I developed severe breathing difficulty to which Doctor prescribed AbPhylline SR 200 for 1 month and Seroflo 250 for two months. I have already finished one month course of Abphylline Sr and about to complete two month course of Seroflo. But, now I feel slight breathing difficulty in the morning and in the afternoon. Should I continue with Seroflo for another 1 month or could you prescribe some other medicine? Now, I experience only a slight breathing difficulty.

You should continue the inhaler seroflo. Can stop abflo sr if symptoms are controlled . The inhaler should be titrated according to assessment of symptoms control. If symptoms are controlled then you can reduce the dose of ICS to half and same further provided that symptoms are controlled
