advair

Avatar m tn I was dx a few months back. Take advair twice a day (was taking singulair too, but it gave me a headache) & take aciphex daily for gerd. the aciphex has helped w/ the coughing some, but i still cough a good bit...sometimes to the point of dizziness. If I laugh, I cough. Any suggestions?
Avatar f tn Here's what's going on: Ever since I stopped taking Advair, I've become hypersensitive to any and all drugs!! Everything from Prilosec to Tagament. From vitamins to digestive enzymes. From Albuterol Sulfate (in nebulizer) to Singulair. Everything that I ingest in pill form or inhale (chemically) results in a SEVERE allergic reaction or SEVERE adverse reactions!! I've learned to combat the GERD by controlling my diet and eating more raw foods seems to do the trick.
Avatar n tn Hi there, I stopped advair a few months ago. I was on it previously for 7 years. Since then I've had a sore/irritated throat and have seen the doctor who has done two cultures with nothing abnormal growing. They don't see anything either. It's like every little thing irritates my throat and it happened as soon as I stopped the advair. Any ideas what this could be ?
Avatar m tn I know these are allergies related or even the Gerd is causing breathlessness so I have to take albuterol + Advair diskus 250 or something... I know taking that is also causing me to develop rashes here and there but they are gone within days..... SERIOUSLY can anyone be weaned off from these Advair + Albuterol. I know if the Gerd is cured maybe the breathlessness will goaway as well... but sometimes I think the Gerd might have been caused by post nasal drip from all those sinus infections.
Avatar n tn I see the dr next wednesday because he wants to allow time for the GERD treatment to work, meanwhile asthma is ok as long as I dont miss a dose of advair which I guess is better then it was last week. Meanwhile my throat still hurts..in fact it kinda feels like I have a sunburn, its really odd. And I my voice is still very hoarse...so far after 7 days of the reflux treatment I am not optimistic we are getting to the root of the problem.
Avatar f tn The ENT said GERD. I have been on protonix My GI says it is not GERD. ad endoscopyseveral months afo and was negative for GERD. The pulmonologist said it was laringer spasms and a viral infection in vocal cords. Hospitalized for 3 weeks. Home on 20 days of oral steroids, flovent and nebulizer treatments. I am not feeling better.The coughng and the raspy, hoarse voice is still there and the gasping for air and choking continues but has gotten a little better.

Avatar n tn The halitosis suggests GERD. GERD and asthma can go hand in hand. If GERD meds don't trelieve it, get tested for Celiac disease.
Avatar m tn Hi, I am 30 years old. Was changed by my doctor from advair 500/50 twice a day to flovent 220 two puffs twice a day as he believed the LABA in advair was making asthma worse. He was right and feel better. Even when I haven't been on flovent/advair my peak flow has been totally normal as well as all parts of the pulmonary function test. My only main asthma symptom is tight chest hard to take a good deep breath inward. I've never had a challenge test or anything like that.
Avatar m tn t go away, which causes me some anxiety in that I think maybe I am having an attack but my rescue meds are not helping. I am 42 years old, normal weight and have been on Advair 500/50 for about 3 years. Xopenex is my rescue inhaler.
Avatar f tn I have taken advair, albuterol, xeponex, prednisone, singular, ventolin, have a nebulizer and nothing helps. I have been hospitalized 12x in the last 2 years I have been in the the ICU on several occasions. I have seen a pulmonologist but I cant seem to get my asthma under control in the year 2010 I have bronchitis 6x. I have 2 kids and it seems like it is getting worse every month. I change my filters in my house evry month. I vacuum every other day. I dust every other day.
Avatar m tn Like the title states, i have a brief breathlessness when i use my advair, i have been using it for about 4 years now. The sensation lasts for about 2 minutes then gradually relieves my asthma on the whole. i Use a 250/50 Diskus. Also today i had a slight aspiration issue from what i believe to be GERD related but not yet diagnosed. acid keeps washing into my esophagus and twice today it got into the lungs and now i have a non stop sensation that my lungs are hot and irritated!
Avatar f tn and he put me on Advair Diskus 500/50 for 2 weeks, then will have a PFT to see if there is any permanent lung damage, as I was a smoker for over 30 years, but did successfully quit over 5 months ago.Have almost finished the Advair,and see no improvement in these symptoms.Getting very frustrated due to the fact this is interfering with my life everyday.Any suggestions?? One specialist I saw saqid that if the PFT tests come back inconclusive he will send me to an Eye,Nose, and Throat specialist.
Avatar n tn with the virus I found my asthma which is usually very under contol became out of control I needed to use my inhalers every 4 hours. I reported this to my dr who gave me advair and advised to take this for 10 days. I was still needing to take the other inhaler as well. Within a few weeks I felt better. I then got another cold. ( I have a three year old in daycare,lol) this time it did not seem to go away with time..
1410020 tn?1322299265 Have you considered GERD? You don't have to have 'heartburn' to have GERD....and the acid can hit your vocal cords and precipitate horrendous coughing. You could do a trial of OTC PPI and see how you do. Just a thought......and GERD is very common in COPD patients.
746512 tn?1388807580 m still getting almost constant asthma symptoms (on max dose of advair), nausea, coughing and clogged nose/ears after eating and bloating. The only thing that works is not eating, doesn't matter if I stay away from the foods that are bad for GERD, any food seems to give me symptoms. And I should be increasing my food intake because I've lost 4 pounds in the last 3 weeks and only 90ib to begin with. Any tips?
1574314 tn?1296201282 Unforunately we have to, I am also on 6 puffs of advair 250/25 MDI (yes above the recommended dosage), singulair 10mg, nasonex and still using ventolin and atrovent daily. So prednisone is the only other thing that we can add when the asthma flares which has been regular the last couple of months .... it refuses to settle down and we can't pin point the exact triggers.
Avatar n tn it seems like advair is making my asthma worse. i started taking advair like 7 month ago and it seemed like for the first few months it was working but i had to become dependant on it everyday or else i would start weezing nonstop. after that my weezing was worst than ever and i started noticing that after i used advair my weezing was much worse. i saw this thread yesterday and now for a day and a half i havent used it and i feel alot better.
Avatar f tn Is it safe to stop taking Advair cold turkey when my symptoms improve or do I need to take something else to come off it slower?
Avatar n tn Can long term use of Advair cause bruising? I have been on 500/50 for two years in the summer months and 250/50 the remainder of the year. I am bruising easily and believe it may be a long term side effect for using Advair.
Avatar f tn I have been cautious about creating any sort of quick, drastic, pressure change in my mouth but now, I wonder about the use of my Advair diskus. I take Advair on a regular basis for asthma and have refrained from using it in the 24 hours post-extraction because I figured the quick inhalation may dislodge the clots. Now, however, it has been two days post-extraction, and I wonder whether it is safe to use Advair without risk of dislodging the clots.
Avatar f tn Steroids are often worse than the disease it treats. Advair almost killed me. By the way, steroids harm your immune system. And - reputable doctors are no long using Adviar 500. And in Februrary the FDA came out with a warning about Advair. They said it should only be used when nothing else worked and, even then, it should only be used short term. Maybe you need another doctor.
