Good saturations: The Duolin may be used if the Seroflo does not improve your symptoms Avoid overuse of Duolin, since a long acting medication is contained in the Seroflo. If both medications are being used without relief, please contact your physician. The chest tightness may also be related to muscular strain. Apply a heating pad to the chest and rest. Monitor your breathing and O2 saturations.

Duolin,seroflo: Seroflo is designed to be used twice a day(2 puffs every 12 hours) as a maintenance inhaler. Duolin can be used as often as every 4 hours In between as well as needed to relieve bronchospasm episodes. This is a rescue inhaler. However if one needs it that often the asthma is considered uncontrolled and hospital care would be indicated even with O2 sats over 95% as peak flow could be falling.
