I tell you Advir is the best drug you can give to a asmaticperson. I am 28 male and had asthma my whole life. I use to wake up in the middle of the night weezing every night. I would suck on my inhaler every day. Than Advair came. out no more attacks. Please if you dont have it get it. And to all the parents that have kids get it for them

With you on this. My son spent two frustrating years taking flovent until I pushed for something else. Advair has made a really big difference... His asthma is totally manageable now and his neb treatments have been cut more than in half. So RA! for Advair ::grin::

I don't know which I love best - my Advair or my Singular. I was put on both of them within a month of each other and they have been my best two years ever!

Love, love, love my Advair. I too was hitting the inhaler really hard, and woke up during the night having an attack. Since I started using Advair, my pulmonologist is VERY happy with how my asthma is controlled. It's amazing stuff - I've been using it for over a year now.

Hello!!

How long did you have to take Advir before you noticed that it was working??

Thanks!!

The nice thing about advair is it has a long-acting reliever component that starts to work right away.

You'll feel better within fifteen minutes, though the steroid-effects won't come around for about two weeks.

I've been using my Advair 250/50 for several months now and I love it. I also take Singular but I don't notice much affect from it.

I've use advair 500 since last November and combivent, singular, theo-24. This all has helped but it is a lot of meds.

The reason you don't notice much difference from the singulair may because it is not effective for you. Unfortunately singulair only works for about half of asthmatics. Actually, it is something like it works great for a third, works okay for another third, and does squat for the last third...
