Experiences of Diagnosis, Symptoms, and Use of Reliever Inhalers in Patients With Asthma and Concurrent Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction or Breathing Pattern Disorder: Qualitative Analysis of a UK Asthma Online Community

Experiences of Diagnosis, Symptoms, and Use of Reliever Inhalers in Patients With Asthma and Concurrent Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction or Breathing Pattern Disorder: Qualitative Analysis of a UK Asthma Online Community

I ended up in A&E with breathing problems and palpitations and was given a blue inhaler. It didn’t do anything at all, so my GP gave me a brown one as well, which didn’t help either. Now I’m on a pink inhaler – that helped for about 3 days, and I felt like I could breathe again, but then it stopped working. Participants struggled to identify when to use their inhalers, and some were clearly overusing them, describing the negative side effects of salbutamol overuse.
