Do you have to use prednisone in serious cases like asthma attacks or can you stick with flovent or ventolin?
Yes, if your albuterol is not helping during a severe asthma attack. Ventolin (albuterol) is the rescue medication meant for most asthma attacks. During an acute exacerbation, most clinicians (you need to create an action plan with your physician) recommend 2 inhalations of albuterol every 20 minutes. If after 3 cycles there is no improvement, call 911 or get to the ER. Most people with asthma have oral prednisone at home that they are instructed to take at this time as well. Flovent is a corticosteroid that is meant to prevent asthma exacerbations only. Using Flovent during an acute attack will not help you.

You Could Have Asthma...?
Asthma is a chronic condition that inflames the airways, making them narrow and making breathing a difficult task. Asthma is a condition that affects millions of humans everywhere, and the effects can range from mild to severe. Most people with asthma are diagnosed early in life because the signs are evident in exercise and illness. Nearly 12% of all children in America suffer from asthma. Causes and Triggers There are certain household issues that can cause and trigger asthma. Mold, mildew, and dust can cause asthma in young children. Therefore, if you live close to a watery area such as the beach, you should do the best you can to keep your home clean. Dusting and allowing your home to air out frequently will also help prevent asthma in young children. Asthma Symptoms If you are struggling with coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, or chest pain, then you may be asthmatic. These are some of the common symptoms that plague individuals with asthma. You could suffer from trouble sleeping, feeling tired, and constant cold symptoms as well. These are signs of asthma as well. You may not suffer from all of these symptoms at once, but you could still have the disease. Sometimes, these symptoms may surface and disappear for an extended period of time. You may have a severe attack and experience no other symptoms for a while. Some uncommon symptoms of asthma include anxiety, fatigue, trouble exercising, and difficulty sleeping. In any case, make sure you see your doctor at the first sign of asthma. Most symptoms of asthma can be alleviated with the use of an inhaler. Asthma Attacks You may be having an attack, but unaware of the signs of such. In asthma attack, you may experience severe wheezing, constant coughing, chest pain, blue lips, and difficulty talking. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, then you need to go to the hospital immediately. Asthma attacks can be deadly if not handled in proper time. Asthma, like all chronic conditions, should not be taken lightly. You should go talk to your doctor or an asthma doctor immediately if you are experiencing any of these symptoms.
Should people suffering from asthma clean air ducts more often?
It depends on what substances trigger their asthma attacks. Allergens commonly found in homes and in the air ducts are pollen, dander, and mold spores. Note that I didn't say that mold grows in air ducts. It happens, but not nearly as often as you might have been led to believe. Mold spores, however, are nearly impossible to prevent in the home environment, and it is inhaling these mold spores that can trigger asthma attacks in individuals sensitive to asthma. Air duct cleaning can be an important part of the asthma management plan. The main focus of any plan should be on reducing exposure to allergenic triggers. Especially if they have tried everything else and they are still having asthma attacks, air duct cleaning could make all the difference. This is even more important to consider if they did air duct cleaning in the home a couple of years ago already, and they have noticed a steady decline in the success of their allergy management. Then it might just be time to clean the air ducts again, especially the blower motor and the evaporation coils on the heating and cooling equipment, which can become encrusted with allergenic particles that get past the filters. If the asthma sufferer does not have allergies, and reacts instead to changes in temperature or the like, then it is unlikely that air duct cleaning would help too much.
