They give you inhaled steroids directed at the area (throat & lungs) to reduce inflammation.Your body sometimes stops producing it's own cortisol when you are taking steroids (even inhaled). Do not for any reason stop taking them. It can be deadly.

Hi Judith, The two inhalers you mentioned are quite different. The Ventolin or Salbutamol inhaler is a rescue inhaler designed to give fast relief from an asthma attack or bronchial spasm. This inhaler is considered to be very safe and is commonl

For us on Medicare they also keep back samples so they can apportion them out to us when the cost of our meds lands us in Medicare's donut hole toward the end of every year. At that point insurance no longer covers them and we have to pay full price

I use the Ventolin as a rescue inhaler, and it seems to work well for me, used to use Xopenex, but, after they changed the propellant it didn't help me anymore, so on to the Ventolin. To: [email]asthma [/email] Sent: Tuesday, November 29, 2011

Yes, my Pulmonologist also gives me samples, and they are only for so many days to get me to try the new meds, I think that is great, because it helps me to try them without having to pay for them right away. To: [email]asthma [/email] Sent:

So I wonder if these corticosteroids are naturally produced in the adrenal glands? Why are we taking corticosteroids by inhalers? Now that I have asthma, does my body not produce these corticosteroids natually now? Or am I misunderstanding this.
