Key points
- Relievers open narrowed airways, while inhaled corticosteroids and other controllers reduce future symptoms or flare risk.
- A long-acting bronchodilator should be used only as directed within the treatment plan for the diagnosed condition.
- Needing a reliever more often or waking with symptoms can indicate poor control and needs review.
Select a listed product and pack to order online. Whether it suits you depends on the inhaler device; ask your doctor or pharmacist.
How the medicine groups differ
Relievers such as salbutamol can act quickly. Inhaled corticosteroids such as budesonide and fluticasone help control airway inflammation. Long-acting medicines include salmeterol and tiotropium. Inhaled delivery can limit, but does not eliminate, whole-body adverse effects.
What these medicines are used for
Uses include asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Some nasal or inhaled medicines may also be used for allergic rhinitis, but devices and instructions differ.
Important safety checks
Ask a clinician or pharmacist to check inhaler technique and whether a spacer is needed. Do not stop a controller when symptoms improve unless advised. Rinsing the mouth after an inhaled corticosteroid may reduce local adverse effects. Heart conditions, glaucoma, urinary problems and other medicines can affect selection.
When to seek urgent care
Seek emergency help for severe breathlessness, difficulty speaking, blue or grey lips, confusion, exhaustion, chest pain, or symptoms that do not improve after following the prescribed action plan and reliever instructions.
