I have asthma and allergies get to me easily. I had problems with allergies even before asthma. I have so called atopic constitution. Beside asthma, allergic rthinitis is my main problem which can be very annoying in the spring. I take several medications, including flixotide and salmeterol. When comparing flixotide or becotide with salmeterol separately to flixotide, which is better?

Asthma is a very serious condition but can be controlled easily with several drug combinations. Flixotide is a spray that belongs to glucocorticoids (used as aerosols they inhibit arachnid acid, which products engage in inflammation). Salmeterol is a beta adrenergic agonist, its effect lasts for 12 hours and functions as dilatator of bronchi. These two combined give an excellent effect.
