Seretide Diskus is a commonly used inhaler. A question I received was whether it can be used in an emergency as a reliever medication. Great question, unfortunately Seretide was designed as a controller inhaler, not a reliever. It does improve breathlessness, however it does not act as quickly as other inhalers which are considered relievers (such as Ventolin or salbutamol, Symbicort, Foster mdi or Atrovent ipratropium).
Can you use Seretide Diskus as a reliever for breathlessness
