I am having anxiety / shortness of breath and chronic  asthma.  I am using two puffs of Combihale twice a day and if required I take Synasma - 400 mg per day and Montek LC.  Only medicine that is effective is Montek LC and since it causes drowsiness at high dosage, I resort to asthalin quite often.   I would like to know if my shortness of breath may be the cause of excessive asthalin usage.  If so, how may I manage both shortness of breath and anxiety.Age
Hi, I had gone through your query and understand your concern. No, this is unlikely to cause shortness of breath in asthma patient due to excessive Stalin use since Stalin acts by dilating airways and thereby relieves breathlessness. Rather excessive use of Stalin indicates that your asthma is not under good control. For asthma management, Physicians follow step care management. If I were the treating physician, I would check the diagnosis, inhaler technique, triggers and Chat Doctor. If every thing is found alright, then I would think for stepping up like increasing the dose of steroid inhaler if required and other
