Avatar f tn after reading the budesonide thread, i found that they are the same med.. and that it does not work on upper large colon so since he says the crohns has affected both large and small it seems like a waste to take this med anyway. i started taking acidophilus (spchk) and eating soft food only. hopefully this makes a change for the better so i dont ahve to get on the horsepills. thanks for responding.
Avatar n tn I am regularly using Ventloin, Fomertrol+budesonide and Motelukast+LC. The only problem is breathlessness arising from throat tightness. I never wheeze in the life. The throat tightness is getting reduced when i take Ventolin. The doctor say i don't have to take ventolin beacause Fomertrol+budesonide and Motelukast+LC. will prevent the difficulty. But only medicines which seems to be working is Ventolin and Motelukast+LC.
Avatar f tn Does the dr. give you Budesonide when your having a flare up or do you take it like Asacol on a regular basis to control Crohn's? I'm so afraid to take prednisone again, I didn't like how I had so many side effect with it. I have been hearing a lot about Methotextrate (thats what you meant by mtx, right?) All the things I have heard are good. Q: Do you take mtx on a reg. basis? From what it sounds like you do but just checking. Q: Do you have any side effects from mtx?
Avatar f tn Although this study confirms that long-term inhaled corticosteroid therapy does not alter the rate of decline of FEV1 in COPD, it does provide evidence of modest clinical benefit in terms of health status and frequency of exacerbations. These findings add a measure of justification for what is fast becoming widespread practice in the management of patients with this common condition." 3) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.
Avatar f tn I've recently been diagnosed with asthma and was prescribed ventolin and budesonide inhalers. After a few days of suffering side effects and getting much worse I went back to the doctor and he confirmed that I am allergic to budesonide, which he said is quite unusual. He prescribed me atrovent but from what I understand it is usually a substitute for ventolin not steroids.

Avatar n tn Over that period I have tried different combinations of Prednisolone, Budesonide, Salazopyrin, Singulair and Colpermin, all with limited success. Presently, I am taking Budesonide (9mg daily) and Salazopyrin (150mg daily). Whilst this allows me to function normally (i.e. normal bowel movements) I have discomfort, bloating and cramping all day, every day. Has anybody ever come through this disease to lead a normal life, or has anyone treated a patient that has done so?

1431210 tn?1283264699 Had a pretty bad head cold, had a sinus infection and all that goodness. After it was all over, a cough stayed. In the past week or so I've been getting short of breath and I've been experiencing some weakness as well. No gasping, no coughing up anything red or bloody, I occasionally cough up small amounts of green/yellow mucous - usually only in the mornings. No lost appetite. It also seems to get more severe at night, and the cough has mostly subsided.

Im a little freaked out, could someone please explain it to me?
Avatar f tn I haven't posted in a while and am wondering if anyone can help me with this because I can't find this answer anywhere... How does Oraquick work? I know it checks for antibodies and I know there are antigens on the test. My question is how do they create the antigens?Do they create a whole virus and then pull the antigen out of it? Where on the test are these antigens located? Are they on the T line? I have many fears regarding hiv but one of them is this test!
