Combivent

[Marjolein]

I know it's not a very common med for CF.. Combivent is a neb with Ventolin and a long working puf combined. It is nebulized.

I was wondering if anyone has a clue on how long it is supposed to work? I ask this because I feel a little short of breath and did my pft's and they were lower then they usually are. But I always do them about an hour after nebs. And now it was 6 hours. So maybe it just doesn't work anymore. Or I'm short of breath because of something.

I'm going to neb again tonight. Usually do it only in the morning now my lungs are more stable. But I will do it again tonight and do pft's again about an hour after it, just to compair. They went down from about 1.68 to 1.31(1.23 and 1.28). This was usual for me before I started nebs.

I was just wondering if anyone knows how long such a neb is supposed to work.. Since there is a long acting bronchodialator(sp?) in it.

Sorry.. I just found somewhere online that it is supposed to work 4 to 6 hours. Annoying that I start to feel it now. I haven't really felt that the past months..

I think it is some virus acting up. So I will up my nebs the coming day I guess, till it feels better again. I have been more tired the past few weeks and have (muscle)aches in my chest sometimes again.

I haven't felt this really since I started nebulizing again.

But I will check my pft's again an hour after my nebs tonight. Just to be sure it's nothing serious.

Just to give you an update. I just did pft's again, about an hour after my nebs and serevent puffer. They are up again. I blew much higher 1.70 and two time 1.68. So about 0.40L higher. This is from 45% back to 58%

I guess I'll do my nebs 3 times a day again
