Call your health care provider if you notice any of the following symptoms: change in amount or color of sputum, fever, chills, increased cough, or increased breathing problems.

Be sure to tell your health care provider about all your health conditions, including heart conditions or high blood pressure, and all medicines you may be taking. Some patients taking SYMBICORT may experience increased blood pressure, heart rate, or change in heart rhythm. Do not use SYMBICORT more often than prescribed. While taking SYMBICORT, never use another medicine containing a LABA for any reason. Ask your health care provider or pharmacist if any of your other medicines are LABA medicines, as using too much LABA may cause chest pain, increase in blood pressure, fast and irregular heartbeat, headache, tremor, and nervousness. Patients taking SYMBICORT should call their health care provider or get emergency medical care: • if you experience serious allergic reactions including rash, hives, swelling of the face, mouth and tongue, and breathing problems. • if you think you are exposed to infections such as chicken pox or measles, or if you have any signs of infection. You may have a higher chance of infection.

• if you experience an increase in wheezing right after taking SYMBICORT, eye problems including glaucoma and cataracts, decreases in bone mineral density, swelling of blood vessels (signs include a feeling of pins and needles or numbness of arms or legs, flu like symptoms, rash, pain and swelling of the sinuses), decrease in blood potassium, and increase in blood sugar levels. If you are switching to SYMBICORT from an oral corticosteroid, follow your health care provider’s instructions to avoid serious health risks when you stop using oral corticosteroids. Common side effects include inflammation of the nasal passages and throat, thrush in the mouth and throat, bronchitis, sinusitis, and upper respiratory tract infection.

Approved Uses for COPD SYMBICORT 160/4.5 is for adults with COPD, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. You should only take 2 inhalations of SYMBICORT twice a day. Higher doses will not provide additional benefits.

I M P O R TA N T I N F O R M AT I O N A B O U T S Y M B I C O R T WHAT SHOULD I TELL MY HEALTH CARE PROVIDER BEFORE USING SYMBICORT?

No advertisement can provide all the information needed to determine if a drug is right for you or take the place of careful discussions with your health care provider. Only your health care provider has the training to weigh the risks and benefits of a prescription drug.

Tell your health care provider about all of your health conditions, including if you: ■ have heart problems ■ have high blood pressure ■ have seizures ■ have thyroid problems ■ have diabetes ■ have liver problems ■ have osteoporosis ■ have an immune system problem ■ have eye problems such as increased pressure in the eye, glaucoma, or cataracts ■ are allergic to any medicines ■ are exposed to chicken pox or measles ■ are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. It is not known if SYMBICORT may harm your unborn baby ■ are breast-feeding. Budesonide, one of the active ingredients in SYMBICORT, passes into breast milk. You and your health care provider should decide if you will take SYMBICORT while breast-feeding Tell your health care provider about all the medicines you take including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. SYMBICORT and certain other medicines may interact with each other and can cause serious side effects. Know all the medicines you take. Keep a list and show it to your health care provider and pharmacist each time you get a new medicine.

WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT SYMBICORT? People with asthma who take long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) medicines, such as formoterol (one of the medicines in SYMBICORT), have an increased risk of death from asthma problems. It is not known whether budesonide, the other medicine in SYMBICORT, reduces the risk of death from asthma problems seen with formoterol. SYMBICORT should be used only if your health care provider decides that your asthma is not well controlled with a long-term asthma control medicine, such as an inhaled corticosteroid, or that your asthma is severe enough to begin treatment with SYMBICORT. Talk with your health care provider about this risk and the benefits of treating your asthma with SYMBICORT. If you are taking SYMBICORT, see your health care provider if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. It is important that your health care provider assess your asthma control on a regular basis. Your doctor will decide if it is possible for you to stop taking SYMBICORT and start taking a long-term asthma control medicine without loss of asthma control. Get emergency medical care if: breathing problems worsen quickly, and you use your rescue inhaler medicine, but it does not relieve your breathing problems. Children and adolescents who take LABA medicines may be at increased risk of being hospitalized for asthma problems. ■ ■

WHAT IS SYMBICORT? SYMBICORT is an inhaled prescription medicine used for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It contains two medicines: ■ Budesonide (the same medicine found in Pulmicort Flexhaler™, an inhaled corticosteroid). Inhaled corticosteroids help to decrease inflammation in the lungs. Inflammation in the lungs can lead to asthma symptoms ■ Formoterol (the same medicine found in Foradil® Aerolizer®). LABA medicines are used in patients with COPD and asthma to help the muscles in the airways of your lungs stay relaxed to prevent asthma symptoms, such as wheezing and shortness of breath. These symptoms can happen when the muscles in the airways tighten. This makes it hard to breathe, which, in severe cases, can cause breathing to stop completely if not treated right away SYMBICORT is used for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as follows: Asthma SYMBICORT is used to control symptoms of asthma and prevent symptoms such as wheezing in adults and children ages 12 and older. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD is a chronic lung disease that includes chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or both. SYMBICORT 160/4.5 mcg is used long term, two times each day, to help improve lung function for better breathing in adults with COPD.

WHO SHOULD NOT USE SYMBICORT? Do not use SYMBICORT to treat sudden severe symptoms of asthma or COPD or if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in SYMBICORT.

HOW DO I USE SYMBICORT? Do not use SYMBICORT unless your health care provider has taught you and you understand everything. Ask your health care provider or pharmacist if you have any questions. Use SYMBICORT exactly as prescribed. Do not use SYMBICORT more often than prescribed. SYMBICORT comes in two strengths for asthma: 80/4.5 mcg and 160/4.5 mcg. Your health care provider will prescribe the strength that is best for you. SYMBICORT 160/4.5 mcg is the approved dosage for COPD. ■

SYMBICORT should be taken every day as 2 puffs in the morning and 2 puffs in the evening.

Rinse your mouth with water and spit the water out after each dose (2 puffs) of SYMBICORT. This will help lessen the chance of getting a fungus infection (thrush) in the mouth and throat.

Do not spray SYMBICORT in your eyes. If you accidentally get SYMBICORT in your eyes, rinse your eyes with water. If redness or irritation persists, call your health care provider.

Do not change or stop any medicines used to control or treat your breathing problems. Your health care provider will change your medicines as needed

While you are using SYMBICORT 2 times each day, do not use other medicines that contain a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) for any reason. Ask your health care provider or pharmacist if any of your other medicines are LABA medicines. SYMBICORT does not relieve sudden symptoms. Always have a rescue inhaler medicine with you to treat sudden symptoms. If you do not have a rescue inhaler, call your health care provider to have one prescribed for you.

Call your health care provider or get medical care right away if: ■ your breathing problems worsen with SYMBICORT ■ you need to use your rescue inhaler medicine more often than usual ■ your rescue inhaler does not work as well for you at relieving symptoms ■ you need to use 4 or more inhalations of your rescue inhaler medicine for 2 or more days in a row ■ you use one whole canister of your rescue inhaler medicine in 8 weeks’ time ■ your peak flow meter results decrease. Your health care provider will tell you the numbers that are right for you ■ your symptoms do not improve after using SYMBICORT regularly for 1 week

T S M A RE M OV E OF T HK WEE

WHAT MEDICATIONS SHOULD I NOT TAKE WHEN USING SYMBICORT? While you are using SYMBICORT, do not use other medicines that contain a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) for any reason, such as: ■ Serevent® Diskus® (salmeterol xinafoate inhalation powder) ■ Advair Diskus® or Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) ■ Formoterol-containing products such as Foradil Aerolizer, Brovana®, or Perforomist®

WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS WITH SYMBICORT? SYMBICORT can cause serious side effects. ■ Increased risk of pneumonia and other lower respiratory tract infections if you have COPD. Call your health care provider if you notice any of these symptoms: increase in mucus production, change in mucus color, fever, chills, increased cough, increased breathing problems ■ Serious allergic reactions including rash; hives; swelling of the face, mouth and tongue; and breathing problems. Call your health care provider or get emergency care if you get any of these symptoms ■ Immune system effects and a higher chance for infections ■ Adrenal insufficiency–a condition in which the adrenal glands do not make enough steroid hormones ■ Cardiovascular and central nervous system effects of LABAs, such as chest pain, increased blood pressure, fast or irregular heartbeat, tremor, or nervousness ■ Increased wheezing right after taking SYMBICORT ■ Eye problems, including glaucoma and cataracts. You should have regular eye exams while using SYMBICORT ■ Osteoporosis. People at risk for increased bone loss may have a greater risk with SYMBICORT ■ Slowed growth in children. As a result, growth should be carefully monitored ■ Swelling of your blood vessels. This can happen in people with asthma ■ Decreases in blood potassium levels and increases in blood sugar levels

TALK TO TEENS ABOUT TANNING Eleven health care groups have joined forces to warn kids about indoor tanning, which increases the risk of melanoma by 75 percent. In March, a survey of teens 14 to 17 found that 17 percent of girls and 3 percent of boys had used tanning beds in the past year.

WHAT ARE COMMON SIDE EFFECTS OF SYMBICORT? Patients with Asthma Sore throat, headache, upper respiratory tract infection, thrush in the mouth and throat Patients with COPD Thrush in the mouth and throat These are not all the side effects with SYMBICORT. Ask your health care provider or pharmacist for more information.

Samantha Fraser, 7, is one of the recipients. For almost a year, she struggled with an above-theknee prosthesis that was too small and kept falling off on the playground. Her parents couldn’t afford to replace the $30,000 leg, but thanks to Thomas, Samantha got a new one in early 2010.

I LOVE SOUTHERN WOMEN. THEY USE HUMOR TO GET THROUGH THE DAY.”

er time as tami

Taylor may be drawing to a close (the fifth and final season of Friday Night Lights is playing Fridays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC), but Connie Britton, 44, isn’t giving up her cowboy boots. “When I was in Austin last, I got a pair made,” she says of the 1935-vintage replicas she calls her “Texas Forever treat.” Kate Meyers caught up with the actress at her home in the Hollywood Hills, which she shares with her two dogs.

The conventional thinking in TV is that married couples are boring. How were you and Kyle Chandler able to make a happy marriage exciting? A lot of times when you get into a TV marriage, the sexuality can kind of go away, and Kyle [below] and I were clear from the beginning that that wasn’t something we were going to play. It’s funny— I think in the second episode we shot a sex scene, and it was disastrous. But my point is, we didn’t need to play scenes like that; there was just a constant sense that these people were still really turned on by each other. You have a twin sister. What’s your bond with her like? We’re fraternal twins and have always had very different personalities. Her career pursuits have been much more intellectual than mine. But we have a kinship that can’t be broken. We’ll go to the ends of the earth for each other. 8 • June 5, 2011

Do you still have that car? Yes, ma’am! My whole life I’ve loved Mustangs, and when I knew I was going to drive to the set, I saw there were a couple of ’73 models on sale near where I live. And I thought, why not? It’s red and named Scarlett after Scarlett O’Hara. I love that it’s something vintage and reliable and also that it’s a convertible, especially driving under that giant Texas sky. How was it filming the last scene of the series? I wasn’t in the last scene we filmed, but I was there. It was shot on a big, open piece of land at sunset. All these people had flown in, many who had been a part of this series for all these years. Everybody was crying, and [executive producer] Peter Berg made a speech. We were looking at each other and taking in how important the show had been to us.

Connie Britton The Friday Night Lights star on driving with the top down and what keeps a marriage interesting

What was your first big part? It was Dolly in Hello, Dolly! I was 16, and my mother often referenced the way she felt every night when I came down for my curtain call and the audience rose to their feet. I think that was my mother’s greatest pride and joy. What makes a perfect Sunday for you?

Sleep late. Beautiful day. Wake up. Go have a delicious, fattening brunch with my favorite people. And then be outside. I try to go for a hike every Sunday. You drove a Mustang convertible from L.A. to Austin o fillm m the first season to of Friday Night Lights.

Did you have a wild party afterward? The wrap party was the next night at this big honky-tonk bar. It was a lot of fun, but wrap parties are always tricky because it’s just so hard to say goodbye. Have you always wanted to be an actress? I have. I spent hours on the phone with my best friend in high school, and I would say I always dreamed of being an actress, and she would say she wanted to be a ski bum. To a kid growing up in Lynchburg, Virginia, becoming a professional actress seemed about as realistic as becoming a ski bum. So it truly is a dream realized.

And, the study found that the all natural Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer pill produced weight loss safely. How does Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer work? It was found in a number of research studies that a substance called Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) decreases abdominal body fat in three ways: 1.) CLA decreases abdominal body fat mass by decreasing the amount of abdominal fat that is stored after eating; 2.) CLA increases the rate of fat breakdown in abdominal fat cells; and 3.) CLA increases the rate of abdominal fat metabolism which decreases the total number of fat cells. You can think of CLA as a match that lights the fuse in abdominal fat. This fuse also increases metabolic rate that can result in more fat loss. Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer contains the effective dose of CLA. CLA interferes with an enzyme called lipoprotein lipase (LPL). LPL is an enzyme that helps store fat in the body. 2 So, by inhibiting this fat-storing enzyme LPL, CLA can help reduce the reaccumulation of fat. CLA also helps the body use its existing abdominal fat for energy, thereby increasing fat oxidation and energy expenditure. Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer also contains other super highly advanced all-natural ingredients that help reduce abdominal fat. Studies have shown that Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer ingredients increase the rate of fat metabolism, which reduces both surface and intestinal abdominal fat and helps inhibit future formation of these abdominal fats.3, 4, 5 One of these ingredients is a very high quality and

An advanced line of products produced by famous Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Frank Ryan is now available to the public. Previously these products had only been available to Dr. Ryan’s clients which included Oscar winning Hollywood movie stars and celebrities across the nation. These products substantially improve personal appearance without plastic surgery. Dr. Ryan, perhaps the most famous Hollywood plastic surgeon in recent times, was extensively featured on television and in magazines across the nation. Dr. Ryan was also one of the first professional staff members of Endless Youth and Life which provides products and services that make celebrities look and perform many years younger than their age. On August 16, 2010 Dr. Ryan died in a tragic car accident. It was Dr. Ryan’s wishes that Endless Youth and Life would make his advanced non-surgical product line available to the public in the future. Endless Youth and Life is now complying with Dr. Ryan’s wishes. The first product being offered to the public is Dr. Ryan’s most popular non-surgical personal appearance enhancement product, Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer. Abdominal fat is the most stubborn fat to reduce and it is also the most hazardous fat to health. Abdominal fat produces destructive hormones that spread throughout the body. A clinical study has shown that Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer can reduce your pot belly without changing your diet or physical activity. A double blind clinical study was conducted on Dr. Frank Ryan’s Abdominal Fat Reducer. The study was commissioned by Advanced Supplement Research and used a research group which conducts clinical studies for the major drug companies. The test subjects in the study lost significant weight and reduced their pot belly without changing their diet or

inging onstage with paul mccartney. Soaring over the Serengeti in a hot-air balloon. At 36, Jimmy Fallon has checked more than a few enviable experiences off his gotta-do-sometime list—but until recently, he wasn’t aware he had such a thing. “I realize now that I always had a bucket list. I think we all do,” says the host of NBC’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. “I just didn’t know that’s what it was called.” Now that he has a name to put to it, Fallon has placed some new items on the agenda, many of which involve exploring “the great places in America,” he says. “Growing up, we went to the same spot every year for vacation—Lake George, New York—which I loved, but I really want to get an RV and drive across the country.” Then there are his slightly less realistic desires, what Fallon calls his “golden” bucket list. “I want to sing with David Bowie on Richard Branson’s spaceship,” he says with a wink. “It’s good to keep dreaming, right? It keeps your brain moving.” It’s 10:30 a.m. in New York City, and Fallon is eating a bowl of ice cream in his office. Not just any ice cream—it’s his very own flavor, Late Night Snack, created by Ben & Jerry’s and featuring fudge-covered potato-chip clusters.

plastic pickle, a gift from his predecessor, Conan O’Brien. Since Fallon’s show debuted, in 2009, he has charmed millions of viewers with his open and offbeat approach: He sings, dances, does impressions—he’s even played beer pong with Betty White. And yet, being a late-night host was never a goal for Fallon, who grew up in Saugerties, N.Y. For a brief moment while attending Catholic school, he thought he wanted to become a priest, but that aspiration was overshadowed by another: “Ever since I can remember, I wanted to be on Saturday Night Live,” he says. Fallon got his wish at 23, eventually hosting Weekend Update with Tina Fey before leaving the show to pursue a movie career. While starring in 2005’s Fever Pitch, Fallon met his future wife, film producer Nancy Juvonen.

WHAT’S ON YOUR LIST? To get you started, here’s a roundup, in no particular order, of the essential experiences every American should have. —Catherine Price 1. Eat real barbecue, like at Shealy’s Bar-B-Que in Batesburg-Leesville, S.C., famous for its fried pulley bone—the part of the chicken around the wishbone. Or go to one of America’s BBQ meccas, like Memphis, Tenn., Austin, Tex., or Kansas City, Mo., and dine your way from joint to joint. 2. Watch a lawn mower race. Find one by consulting the website of the United States Lawn Mower Racing Association (letsmow.c (letsmow.com), the country’s oldest and largest larg sanctioning body for law lawn mower racing. Its motto: “We turn a weekend chore into a competitive sport.”

that was possible—‘Hey, can we carve four presidents’ faces into a giant mountain?’ It’s fascinating.”

3

“I’d like to learn to tap-dance. When I was growing up, my parents always watched James Cagney movies—maybe it’s an Irish Catholic thing. In Yankee Doodle Dandy, Cagney played George M. Cohan and he tap-dances down the White House steps. So cool.”

3. Visit a farm. Meeting the men and women who grow your food can be fascinating and fun. To locate a nearby farm, visit localharvest.org.

“I want to ride a motorcycle on Route 66. I just think it would be fun, and maybe somehow I’d make a connection to Jack Kerouac.” “I’d like to go to Graceland, see how Elvis did it up. And eat a peanut butter and banana sandwich while I’m there.”

9. Read the Constitution. Considering how much time we spend arguing about it, why not bone ne up on what it actually says? 10. Volunteer to be a poll worker on Election Day (Nov. 8 this year).

4. Participate in a tradition that’s so odd, it has to be American, like the Mermaid Parade, held in New York City’s Coney Island (June 18), or the sidewalk egg-frying competition in Oatman, Ariz. (July 4). For a wacky cold-weather event, go see the Winter Frolic Outhouse Race in Two Harbors, Minn., in February. 5. Stand at the base of a really tall tree, like one of Northern California’s redwoods or giant sequoias. Gaze up at its branches. Be amazed.

15. Ride the Ferris wheel at a country fair.

8. Invite someone new to Thanksgiving. Your guest could be a neighbor, a coworker, a foreign visitor—anyone who’s not having a celebration of his own. There’s no better way to observe this very American holiday than by welcoming someone into your home.

12. March in a parade. You don’t have to pull a Ferris Bueller and commandeer a float—tagging along will do— but ut big smiles and waves are musts. m

7. Attend a religious service of a faith different from your own.

11. Enjoy a minor league baseball game. For teams and schedules, go to minorleaguebaseball.com.

“I want to be a dad. That’s floating to the top of my list. I think it’s such an important thing. I’m at the age where everyone has kids, and I ask them, ‘Is it like a puppy?’ And they go, ‘It’s 10 times a puppy.’”

6. Own n a pair wboy of cowboy boots.

14. Learn the second verse of our national anthem. One little-known fact about “The Star-Spangled Banner”: Its melody was based on “To Anacreon in Heaven,” a popular British tune dedicated to a wine-loving Greek poet.

16. Seek out the best Fourth of July fireworks within 50 miles of your home. One of the biggest shows is in New York City, where up to six barges detonate simultaneous displays, but every state has spectacular options, like Disneyland Resort’s patriotic explosions in Anaheim, Calif., or the celebration at Fort Bragg in N.C., which includes a thrilling parachuting exhibition.

17. Get a passport— there’s a whole world out the there to explore. (The explo firs rst-time fee for adults fo is $135.)

18. Send a letter to your U.S. senator or representative. Maybe even be nice.

13. T Take k a kid to Disney Di World. W

19. Mail a care package to a service member. Learn what to send and where to send it at anysoldier.com, an organization that helps Americans boost the spirits of military personnel.

Fallon is the first to admit he has a lot to be thankful for, even though his justpublished book, Thank You Notes—compiled with the writers on Late Night— focuses instead on cheerfully snarky or oddball observations. (“Thank you … shampoo … or as I like to call you when I run out of soap, ‘soap.’ ”) Now that writing books has been crossed off his bucket list, he can focus on making his other dreams a reality.

For one of the densest concentrations of Ancestral Puebloan ruins, head to Chaco Canyon, N.M.

VIMOVO is not recommended as a starting treatment for relief of acute pain. Controlled studies do not extend beyond 6 months.

Elderly patients are at greater risk for serious gastrointestinal events. VIMOVO is not right for everyone, including patients who have had an asthma attack, hives, or other allergic reaction with aspirin or any other NSAID medicine, patients who are allergic to any of the ingredients in VIMOVO, or women in late stages of pregnancy. Serious allergic reactions, including skin reactions, can occur without warning and can be life-threatening; discontinue use of VIMOVO at the first appearance of a skin rash, or if you develop sudden wheezing; swelling of the lips, tongue or throat; fainting; or problems swallowing. VIMOVO should be used at the lowest dose and for the shortest amount of time as directed by your health care provider.

I grew up in a very small town [Kennett, Mo.] with no real ethnic food. There were no Mexican or Italian restaurants—and no Asian food, either. My mom was the first to buy a wok! I remember her making a dish and my dad saying, “Why are there peanuts in my chicken?” She was adventurous when it came to food, and that rubbed off on me. But once I started touring, I was eating on the go and would grab tuna salad almost every day. My food choices then were about convenience. It wasn’t until after my breast-cancer diagnosis [in 2006] that I began to focus on what I was eating. When chef Chuck White joined me on the road, he put an end to my daily tuna and introduced variety to my diet. But when he does make tuna salad, he whips up a healthy version with apples or pears, which add nutrition and a delicious crunch.

serve the tuna on toasted sourdough or in a pita. In the spring and summer, eat it on a tomato slice or a bed of lettuce.”

my kids to one new food at mealtime, mixed in with other things they love. If they try it, they get a gold star—or lots and lots of praise.”

If you’re taking insulin, ask your health care provider about the beneďŹ ts of FlexPenÂŽ

You wrote that the stars in constellations aren’t clustered together in any sense and that they are at vastly different distances from Earth. Does this mean that, over time, the constellations will lose their current form?

Insulin delivery that’s going places, just like you

—S. Cameron, Toronto

Yes. Although all the constellations are in the Milky Way Galaxy, their stars are still in motion relative to one another. In 50,000 years, the change in their appearance will be dramatic. And after a few million years, they will be gone, replaced by different constellations.
