Azmacort Substitute (Page 18) (Top voted first)
UpdatedAzmacort has been taken off the market because of environmental concerns (they say). There really is NO substitute. All other steroids do not work. My wife could die because of it. No one seems to care. Do you?
Since I cannot get Azmacort my asthma is not controlled as well as it was when I had Azmacort! Please bring back Azmacort. I enjoy breathing, wouldn't you? Imagine you had to wear a collar and someone else controlled it. The other person had your collar tightened to where you could just breath, no running, just barely walking. Now you grab your inhaler, you get 90 minutes of relief and the collar starts to tighten again. You still have 2 hours and 30 minutes before you can use your inhaler again! At least with Azmacourt I got the 4-6 hour relief.
Re: Lourdes (# 340)
Hi Lourdes, it's actually super easy, but the results, for me at least, were good but not as good as the real thing. I tried several handheld nebulizers, and I found one called Mini-Mist to be the best. It runs on AA batteries, and I found that using LiPo rechargeable AAs were the best, and they're super easy to get off ebay. For the medicine I used Nasacort nasal spray. You'll need to dilute it as it is too thick for the nebulizer, so I dilute it with distilled water. Don't use tap or regular bottled water as they may have minerals which can clog the nebulizer. I can't remember exactly but I think it was around 1:1-ish mix or so. It does take a few minutes but when my lungs are acting up it will def calm them. Hope this helps!
