I had bad asthma episode peak flow 220 two weeks ago. Received steroid tablets for one week and am now on seretide discus 250 am and pm plus singular pm only. Peak flow 340 breathing easier still have a cough and am still very tired. No infection on X-ray. Usually after asthma episode I recover relatively quickly however this seems to be prolonged, would seretide make me tired ?
