cattitude to read them carefully, I have used the first dose of the inhaler, and rinsed my mouth afterwards as instructed.
It's a good thing the instructions note that I might not notice the powder entering my mouth or lungs, because I didn't. I think I followed the instructions properly, but I should reread them again before the next dose (in the morning).
It's also a good thing Cattitude was here to help me get the thing open the first time, because removing the cap for the first time needed a stronger grip than I have.
I am supposed to use this twice a day, whether or not I've been coughing, and can use the albuterol as a rescue inhaler if I'm coughing despite the Pulmicort.
I have a 30-day supply, and Carmen wrote the prescription with one refill. I have an in-person follow-up with her on December 14th, which will be long enough for me to get an idea of whether it's working. The follow-up is in person so she can measure things about my breathing, something that wouldn't work by telemedicine.
