To get rid of such medicine to some extent you need to talk and get insights into getting advise of inclusion of ayurvedic herbals for immunoenhancing and respiratory tract management from allergens and infect ants. Yes, these naturals are not tasty, not attractive but have a great potential to ease your life in a gradual way. I do not criticize allopathy. That's also life saving and scientific but then there is limit of effects. Pl book phone call on Lybrate or chat for further guidance.

Both are long acting ics-laba combination drugs. The only difference being that salmeterol (seroflo) acts a little slower than formoterol (maxiflo).
Side effects range from hypersensitivity, altered taste, oral candidiasis, tachycardia to pneumonias.

In heart failure, the main pumping chambers of the heart (the ventricles) may become stiff and not fill properly between beats. In some people, the heart muscle may become damaged and weakened. The ventricles may stretch to the point that the heart can't pump enough blood through the body.

Some patients with copd have increased mucus production. This is because they have more goblet cells than people without copd. They may also have oversized mucus glands in their airways. This overproduction results in a chronic cough.
