Serevent Free For All - Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Message Board

Karend · 02-07-2001, 02:16 AM

Hello All, I'm new to this board and I'm also new to taking Serevent.

It's been prescribed at 1 puff morning and night. It's supposed to help me sleep at night.

As I've only been taking it 2 days now, I'm interested in anyone's experiences with this medication.

Thanks all.

I also am taking servent along with something else-2 puffs twice a day-I know it did get rid of my chest pains, but I find I still have a hard time breathing-one step up is a good start I guess-I don't have asthma really either-I'm an ARDS surivior.

I take Serevent and Flovent 2 puffs 2x a day. I also take Singulair. It keeps me under control breathing; though any exertion and I'm pretty winded, but I can at least take deep breaths now. What's ARDS?

Hi:

I have emphysemia & use Serevent & pulmicort in the A.M. & P.M. I can vouch for both medications. My shortness of breath has decreased substantially & I can lie down at night to sleep.

ARDS is adult/acute resptiory distress syndrome-for more information go to ards.org or comatose.org or just ask me.
God Bless.
