What are other medicines that are similar to Advair?


I've tried Singulair and it didn't do much of anything. I am going to the doctor tomorrow and want to be armed with some info on alternatives. Sometimes at the clinic they don't take the time I feel they should. I've found if I go with some ammunition I get further. Any alternatives for Advair and experiences would be much appreciated. Thanks!

In the past I used something called Tilade, it's similar to Advair in it being a preventive inhaler. To be honest with you, I didn't feel like it did anything that Advair hasn't done but everybody has different results with different meds so GOOD LUCK! And good for you for staying on top of it... asthma is a scary thing.

Advair is an inhaler and Sinulair is not. Another effective inhaler is Spiriva

Singulair works best with a buddy. I take it along with Clarinex and that cocktail seems to do pretty well. I also use an inhaled steroid (which is what Advair is) called Azmacort. Works well but can take a few weeks to get going in your system. Just so you know, I have severe Asthma and allergies. These meds together with a nasal inhaler work pretty well to keep me well and alive. If you have allergies you might want to look into treating the allergies...that can sometimes stop the wheezing and tightness.
I hope I haven't been to wordy...if you need more help drop me a line on 360.
Good luck!!!

Advair is an inhaled steroid. An alternative is Flovent, but I like the Advair better. There may be others, but all require that you rinse your mouth after use to avoid getting the thrush and a frog in the throat that will distort your voice. Singulair didn't work for me either. I don't have asthma, I have COPD, but the same medicines are used to open the airways.
