Does anyone else with asthma

seem to get sicker than the average person and take longer to recover? I have a virus that I'm on day 5. I've missed 3 days of work and am exhausted. My step son had the same thing and was sick like 4 days. I'm wondering why I'm sicker?

Re: Does anyone else with asthma

Ask your doctor about this but mine has instructed me as soon as I feel a cold or other respiratory infection/problem coming on to double my daily Flovent dose...and continue until the symptoms subside. I rarely have these types of issues but when I have, I have done as instructed and it made all the difference in the world. Check with your physician.

Adrenaline belongs to the category of drugs characterized as adrenergic bronchodilators. Adrenergic bronchodilators are medicines used as inhalations to open up the bronchial tube passage.
Do you think this medication will be useful for asthmatic people?
