A member asked:
Is it okay to use albuterol and advair together? what are the dangers, and when should this combination be done/be avoided?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's OK: It is OK to use this combination when instructed to do so by your doctor for acute asthma problems. Advair is a maintenance medication that contains a steroid and a long-acting beta agonist. Albuterol is the short acting version of the beta agonist. Sometimes during asthma attacks you require the short acting medication. Overuse of it can lead to further problems, however.
