I have been doing more and more research and am wondering what medications you are all on. I haven't even heard of some medications until this weekend - like mucomyst.

I thought it would be helpful if you could post your/your child's age and what meds your taking?

My daughter is 5, DDF508 and takes the following:

Albuterol - 2 puffs 1 x per day with spacer
Pulmozyme - 2.5 ml nebulized
TOBI - every other month, nebulized 2 x per day. - we are on our second acquisition of pseudamonas and are trying to "eradicate" it. We were given a dose of Cipro - 14 days - in the beginning and then tobramyacin every other month. We are switching to TOBI next month. Any comments about the differnce between TOBI/tobramyacin?
We had used the e-flow, but had a hard time with sterilization and are switching to TOBI with the devilbiss air compressor.
Creon 10 - 3 pills with meals, 1-2 with snacks
Prevacid - once a day for gagging/reflux
Vitamax - 2 ml once a day
