I am having Bronchonal Asthma. This year, I took DUOLIN meter-dose-inhaler as per some other DOCTOR, instead of dry type inhaler, used to take earlier. Attacked with BP of reading 174/89. PR -104. Stopped and go for dry type. I am having cough and cold. BP has come down to 145/85, PR-88 in sitting condition. Suggest medicine with inhaler, cough and cold is there.

Msi (inhaler) are superior to dpi (dry powder. Your single reading of high bp can be due to asthma, breathlessness. Refer my health tips on winter and asthma, asthma and allergens, you may need some additional bronchodilator. Feel free to ask privately with details for proper scientific suggestions.

It make no difference between MDI/ DPI. Its patient preference. Better use asthma preventor medicine by inhalation with spacer having ICS and long acting B2 agonist if you are having persistent asthma. Avoid trigers of asthma.
