Been a chronic asthmatic for years, got a lot worse moving here and rather than do anything about just used Ventolin increasingly more and more. Got onto a Seretide Accuhaler (The purple round one with the powder) and it has changed my life. 2 puffs a day done. Sleeping better, generally feel 300% better. One issue I have found is I am losing my voice a bit, and I sing. I know this can be a side effect of these inhalers, even thrush of the throat etc. Is there anyway I can overcome this apart from having a drink after? Are the aerosol puffers better than the powder inhalers?

 

Any help or advice appreciated 

I sometimes get a scratchy voice using the aerosol inhalers. Now, i always gargle with water after a dose.
