I've been using Symbicort 80/4.5mcg for about a month now, and I've noticed some improvements in my asthma symptoms. However, I've also experienced some side effects like a bit of a dry cough and occasional hoarseness. I've read about the possible serious side effects, and it's got me a bit worried. Has anyone else had similar experiences? How do you manage the side effects? Also, I've heard that it's not meant for sudden breathing problems, so how do you guys handle flare-ups?

I've been using Symbicort 160/4.5mcg for a few months now to manage my COPD. It's been a game-changer, but I'm curious to hear from others who use it. How has it worked for you? Have you experienced any side effects, and if so, how did you manage them? I've heard a lot about the importance of using a rescue inhaler in case of severe breathing problems, so I'm always careful. I'd love to share tips and experiences with you all!
