Common Questions and Answers about Advair and mouth sores

advair

Avatar f tn As for your teeth and mouth, your doctor should have given you instructions to rinse or brush your teeth after using the Advair, otherwise it can eat through the enamel and also cause sores and sensitivity in your mouth. If you have any concerns, you should call your doctor or pharmacist. Hope this helps.
5037123 tn?1362663006 Last week I was diagnosed with Asthma (through a breathing test) after two bouts with Bronchitis and lots of coughing. My doctor gave me Advair. After 3 doses I began getting back pain between my shoulder blades. Not sure if it was from the Advair I took another dose and the pain got worse. I contacted my doctor and he changed me to Symbicort. I had no problem for 3 days, but after today's dose the back pain is back. Is this typical or am I doing something wrong when inhaling.
Avatar n tn I am using advair for my asthma and it seems to help with those symptoms and I also have a rescue inhaler Flovent. But i do clean my advair diskus before and after each use. I dont have any infections in my mouth or lung i just have the white mucus and it has only been happening for two months and I have been using the advair about a year now. I heard from someone that the white mucus could be from allergies...is that true?
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 I have been plagued with thrush since I started using Advair..plus hoarseness in my voice ...Recently I have discover a cure...make sure you take out any dentures before using your inhaler and rinse well with water..here is the magic...after ringing, rinse your mouth with white vinegar. It kills the thrush...don't use apple cider vinegar because sugar feeds the thrush. It burns at first because of the thrush sores but as you heal, it quits...
Avatar f tn m, constantly having to take Fluconazole tablets after a round of antibiotics for candidiasis under my breasts and in my mouth. I always rinse my mouth after any inhalers or the spriva handihaler either with water or mouthwash. Usually both. I also use Clotrimazole 10 mg troche up to 5 times daily for the thrush in my mouth. I am so frustrated as I feel like the spriva is helping my breathing but I am miserable.
1425157 tn?1311651679 And as far as I know, inhaled steroids pretty much stay in the lungs (and throat and mouth which is why you rinse your mouth). I don't think much, if any, goes systemic like taking prednisone.
Avatar f tn he was using advair also. His ent say make sure you gargle super good after advair and use a mouth wash that is soothing,. not burning. Keep ur mouth clean. Try a netti pot too. soon as my hubby did the netti pot, his asthma, sore throat & sinus congestion vanished. Gone to this day! You can get them at a local drug store, Trader joes or stores like that. Hope your havin good weather in AZ!
Avatar n tn Do you have white stuff in the back of your throat? Advair may cause a fungus to grow if you do not rinse your mouth and throat after use. If you have a fungus, you will need to see your doctor.
Avatar f tn I have been taking Advair for many years now, and I believe it is affecting my vocal chords. I am a singer, and I always have to clear my throat, and am always raspy. Does advair dry out vocal chords? Is there a better option that can help me breathe, but also still sing?
Avatar n tn Make sure you rinse your mouth after each use with Advair...that should help reduce the number of times you get thrush.
Avatar f tn It also played havoc with my adrenal glands and my eyes. I now take natural anti-inflammatories and mucolytics and am much better off, even though I have moderately severe COPD. Go natural and you will get your voice back.
Avatar f tn The rest of it sits in your mouth and throat, therefore, it is very important to rinse and gargle after each use. The drug which is good in the lungs, is bad in the mouth and throat. It can cause fungal infections, hoarseness, and temporary loss of voice. You may need to have a throat culture done to make sure you do not have a fungal infection. I am not saying that this is the only possible reason you have problems losing your voice, but I would put it at or close to the top of the list.
Avatar n tn Several months ago, I noticed asthma symptoms returning. I saw my pulmonary doc last week and he upped advair to 250/50. How long should it take until I see a noticeable change? Also I have been having a dry cough, which I read can be a side effect of advair. Should that go away eventually?
Avatar n tn Gargling and rinsing the mouth after each puff on your corticosteroid inhaler, may help to prevent mouth and throat irritation. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn I never experienced those symptoms while on Advair and I used Advair for many many years. After reading your comments I am stopping Dulera and going back to Advair, it worked better and I trust it better than Dulera. Another thing I have noticed is the Dulera applicator will fail to deliver the medication, I will have to try it over and over again and in the meant time, the counter of the application continues to count each activation even though it fails to deliver the medication.
Avatar n tn Well today April 3rd they seem to have cleared up mostly and then i ate a chocolate rabit and more of them appeared??? Is this mouth herpes, canker sores, allergic reaction? I am kinda freaked out about it.
Avatar f tn Also the area below my gums, the crevice between the gum and cheek, in the 4 areas below my molars the skin is very irritated with sores and the skin over top of the sores is white and peels away. I also have sores on the side of my tongue, where it attaches to the back of my throat is red, irritated and white skin forms over it, but it peels away easily (like the crevices).
Avatar f tn My throat neck and mouth was very sore. The back of my throat was very red and I could feel the lymphadenopathy on the right side of my neck. The area where my gum hurts looked like a sore was forming right around there. Monday I went to the doctor and I was negative for strep but my doctor still treated me for it. I've been on a heavy dose of penicillin for days now and no change. It seems like the sores have spread and their on the roof my mouth, the lower and upper part of my gums.
Avatar n tn I went to my dentist 4 days ago and he did a mouth exam and looked at my mouth neck jaw under my tongue and the roof of my mouth and when he was done said mouth sores, canker sores but why are they so slow healing I have used salt water and anything you can think of. PS help what should I do I have also been to two doctors and they said the same thing.
Avatar n tn What the doctor did was take this long match stick looking thing that was either sulfur or silver nitrate and touch it to the main soar on the tip of my tongue and it burned like crazy. Then he prescribed me some medicine that completely numbed my mouth and they eventually went away. So it seems right that stress could also cause it. It was terrible pain tho and I hope you feel better soon!
Avatar f tn Ribavirin can cause mouth sores and dehydration, which can make your mouth feel dry and have a bad taste. Ribavirin can cause you to have an allergic reaction that might show up as a rash on your skin. It can also show up as an irritation in your mouth and throat. If you normally get mouth ulcers, they may get worse while you are on treatment. Quick Tips: Eat soft or pureed foods. Baby foods or toddler foods may be good substitutes. Drink nectars instead of juices.
492898 tn?1222243598 The doctor who recently checked him out does not think this is thrush, because he could not see anything white in his mouth. I am not so sure about that. Since these sores, and he says they are not terribly painful, but very much bother him are a big deal, I am wondering what may help him, and also what this could be if not thrush. at the moment he refuses to eat anything but drinks only milkshakes and really cold milk. Any advice?
1763337 tn?1313439655 ve had fever blisters on both sides of my mouth, sores in both nostrils and my tongue is raw and burning, I can hardly eat or drink anything. I go to see my dr. this Friday, but has anyone else had these problems and what did you do to treat it? Thanks to everyone in this community. I've found lots of helpful posts.
Avatar m tn I also take Seraquel. Recently I have been having a terrible problem with sores in my mouth and inside my ears itch. I have never had mouth sores before but recently I can't get rid of them. They get better and worse but never leave entirely. Also my throat has a chronic mild sore feeling. The throat problem is nothing really bad but its there and never changes for the better or worse.
Avatar m tn I'm into week 20 of 24 week interferon program and starting to get soreness and rash symptoms on rear gums and lower portion of my mouth. Can't figure it out. Gotta finish the program!!! So far so good!! Virus free at 7 weeks and still virus free. Yahoo!!!! Any answers?
Avatar f tn I am in week 5 of triple TX with INCIVEK, Riba and Peg, yesterday I starting having sores inside my mouth and in the corners of my lips. Today I noticed a few sores on the side of my tongue. Has this happened to anyone else??? If so what did you do to treat it??
410850 tn?1229178711 Go to your Dr and get a prescription for MAGIC MOUTHWASH. It works. For me it definitely lessened the severity of the mouth sores. It has Lidocaine, Benadryl and malox in it. That is the basic stuff. It can also be mixed with other things like something to get rid of yeast problems (forgot the name) if they develop.
649848 tn?1534633700 I am drawing a connection between high T3 and mouth sores. That is how it is with me, anyway.
