advair

757137 tn?1347196453 The FDA has issued a stern warning concerning the use of Advair. Not only can it worsen asthma, but the side effects can be fatal. Other forms of treatment should be sought and, if the product is used at all, it should be for short periods of time. Advair affected my adrenals, harmed my eyes, and worsened my asthma. It caused such serious choking that I feared it would kill me. I stopped taking it last August and am doing fine on natural anti-inflammatories.
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.
Avatar n tn The FDA issued a warning last February concerning Advair. It should only be used when nothing else works, and even then, for only short periods of time. There are many serious side effects, including death (a pretty serious side effect). I have not heard of Advair causing bruising. How are you on vitamins? Lack of vitamin C, or any others?
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 DO YOU KNOW WHAT TYPE OF DRUG IT IS OR BETTER THAN ADVAIR?
Avatar n tn Forgot to mention that that Advair also gave a case of severe bronchitis (which I falsely assumed was a worsening of my condition) which kept me coughing all day and all night. The FDA issued a warning last February about salmeterol (one of the components of Advair), but I found the same problem when I tried an inhaled steroid that did not contain it.
Avatar n tn In February of this year the FDA stated that Advair should be used if nothing else works, and even then, only for short periods. The manufacturer does not lay much emphasis on deaths caused by Advair, a rather spectacular side effect. I stopped using it because it caused severe bronchitis (which I thought mistakenly was part of a worsening illness). I stopped cold turkey after almost choking to death. And, guess what, I have mild chronic bronchitis.
Avatar n tn So if you are prescribed something like that, ask if there are alternatives. The FDA sent out warning a year ago about inhaled steroids. There are natural anti-inflammatories that can help. I take mullein (in a liquid form), vitamin B5 and vitamin C. Marshmallow is also good. Some Chinese herbs are excellent, but you have to have a doctor get them for you. I also have a portable nebulizer which I prefer to the rescue inhalers. The reason is that I can take as little as I need.
675347 tn?1365460645 The FDA has announced that Midwestern Pet Food is expanding its recent recall to include more brands and over 1000 lots of its dog and cat foods because they contain potentially deadly levels of aflatoxin. FDA is aware of at least 70 deaths and 80 illnesses in dogs who ate the affected products. For full details, please visit the following link: https://www.dogfoodadvisor.
566175 tn?1278430472 And even if you have peanut butter products that arent included in the recall, it still may be a good idea to throw out any thing that you're not sure about. Taking care of our September mommies and babies!!
1232362 tn?1333135406 In February the FDA warned that Advair should not be used unless nothing else works, and even then it should only be used short-term. I have suffered serious side effects from Advair (it almost killed me). I stopped using it and substituted natural anti-inflammatories, which were more effective and had no side effects.
390388 tn?1279636213 I hit the button to fast to post. On the FDA site they have a place where you can be notified of any recalls listed; "after the dog food recalls" I had put my email address in to be notified of any updated recalls and never got off the list. Its hard to believe all the things that get recalled and never brought to attention to the people. It's free for anyone to get on. Just thought I would pass it along.
Avatar f tn t know if they still are but earlier the website was having technical issues and it was saying that ANY lot number you put in was not part of the recall. I followed the link on the main recall page that gives you a pdf of ALL lot numbers that are part of it just to be safe because we use Similac too. The can I've been using isn't listed but I'm still scared to use it.
Avatar f tn By Parija Kavilanz, senior writerMay 14, 2010: 8:28 PM ET NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The quality and safety violations that led to the shutdown of a Tylenol plant were extremely serious, and could lead to tough action by regulators on drugmaker Johnson & Johnson.
82861 tn?1333453911 Me967 just sent me this information from the FDA. Thanks!
356518 tn?1322263642 http://www.iguard.org/r/058JiD8999Cs * * * * WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? This recall for Ultram ER Extended-Release Tablets, 100 mg was issued at a warehouse and pharmacy level only. The FDA and the manufacturer have determined that any recalled product that may have been dispensed to patients does not pose a significant health risk. If you take Ultram ER Extended-Release Tablets, 100 mg, you should follow up with your physician if you are concerned or are experiencing side effects..

Avatar f tn Another side effect is adrenal fatigue which results in anxiety and panic attacks. The FDA sent out a warning last year that said Advair should only be used when nothing else works, and, even then, only for short periods. There are other natural anti-inflammatories, if you are interested. They are important because albuterol (which is necessary) is drying and natural supplements can counteract this.
Avatar f tn When I was doing some reading about Advair a few mos ago I read about the powder you are talking bout but cannot recall whatsoever the name of it... sorry.
94902 tn?1330479667 There has been a recall of certain Infants and Childrens Tylenol. You can get more info at the following link: www . tylenol.com/page.jhtml?id=tylenol/news/subpchildinfantnews. inc (take out the spaces). Also there is even more info at McNeil Consumer Healthcare that states that the Tylenol may have been exposed Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia) bacteria.
Avatar m tn Do you recall the ice skater Tanya Harding (the one who tried to have Nancy Kerrigan's knees broken during the Nationals many yrs ago). Well, she had exercise induced asthma as I recall and would take her inahler right before going on the ice, etc. My 16yr old maintains on Advair during Swim and Track season and it really lets her perform pretty much asthma free ... soccer in the cool AM's / PM's would trigger from the brisk night air .. rescue inhaler helped her a lot.
Avatar f tn t improved at all in the 6 months he has been seeing me, HOWEVER I am able to control my diplopia about 95% of the time. Currently I will be seen every 3 months to determine if muscle surgery will be performed. In the meantime, I will live with the double vision. My question for you Dr. Hagan, is that if in the future, you do more research on cataract surgery anesthesia and diplopia if I could be involved in your study.
