If you have good control of your asthma you should be able to: continue normal activities without coughing, shortness of breath, wheezing or a tight chest; sleep through the night without being woken by asthma symptons; and use your reliever inhaler less than twice a week. Use of vantolin for more than two times a week is an indicator that your asthma is not well controlled.

Ventolin has been prescribed for your current medical problems and should not be used for other medical conditions. The pharmacy label on your medicine will tell you how much medicine you should take. Depending on your response to the medicine, how the medicine works and the goals of your treatment, your physician may vary your dose. You should not change the dose unless prescribed by your physician.

Inhaled preparations of Ventolin are fast acting as they can make your breathing easier and relieve bronchospasm within minutes. You can use Vantolin to prevent asthma attacks caused by triggers such as house dust, pollen, cats, dogs and exercise.

When you are having an asthma attack you should use a fast acting preparation of Ventolin as directed by your prescriber. If your normal inhaled dose of Ventolin does not give you the same amount of relief then you should contact your prescriber for more advice. Some of the other new drugs are acomplia, rimonabant, tadalafil singulair and orlistat. Website courtesy NAC stoneleigh park.
