While using Seretide, make sure that you are following the exact dosage which has been recommended to you by your physician. All information and advice must be adhered to; do not use the medicine in large amounts or for longer than prescribed. If you feel that the dosage administered to you is too much or too little, talk to your doctor about it rather than adjusting the dose on your own.
