man I forgot what my doc told me about my order of meds and they just came in today...

I THINK she said it was

albuteral
hypertonic saline
pulmozyme
symbicort


(or where the hypertonic & pulmo switched???) And its ok if I do these meds WHILE doing my vest right?

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the Stanford CF Center staff recommend the following sequence for inhaled medications:

Bronchodilators (albuterol, Combiventtm, Xopenextm) to open the airways

Hypertonic Saline (7%) to mobilize mucus and induce airway clearance

Pulmozymetm (DNAse) to thin mucus (Note: studies find no significant differences for order of inhaling DNAse,
hence patient preference can govern timing.)

Airway Clearance Technique: Vest, Fluttertm, chest PT, IPPV, etc.

Antibiotics (TOBItm, Colistin). The previous therapies open and clear the airways of mucus, thereby improving
the distribution and therapeutic impact of these medications.

Steroids (Floventtm, Pulmicorttm, QVARtm)

If you start coughing blood, stop Pulmozinetm, saline, airway clearance technique, and inhaled antibiotics. Call your CF doctor or nurse for further advice.

My doctors suggest not to do the 7% and Pulmozyme in the same treatment time...not saying it has scientific evidence behind it, but it is what they recommend.

Ronnie,

What's the logic behind their not wanting pulmozyme and HTS done during the same treatment slot?
