Common Questions and Answers about Advair vs qvar
advair
Both my 11 year old son and I take it and it has made an amazing difference.
My son was on Singular but we had to yank him off it as he became very uncharacteristically despondent, irritable, and very reactive. He also complained of pain and numbness.
I am supposed to take advair 250/50 twice a day. I have not been taking it because it is so expensive. I took it the last couple of days because I was having a hard time with fatigue. I took it and man I felt great! Now I got thrush again! Every time I use that stuff I get thrush even tho I rinse my mouth with saltwater! I also noticed it makes me cough! Anyone else have these problems?
A couple of years ago, around the age of 13, my daughter started getting exercise-induced asthma and since then it has turned into full-blown asthma which has to be treated daily now (she is now 16). She was on QVAR, which didn't work very well, then we went to ADVAIR, which the insurance company encouraged me to change her from because it was so insanely expensive and now she is taking Dulera (which I think is working better than ADVAIR was) one puff each in the a.m. and p.m.
late on-set asmath 8-months back, my daily regiment isone-puffs of Advair 50/500 twice a day followed by Ventolin as needed but no more than two-puffs fours times daily. My question: how will these drugs affect my lungs, teeth, mouth over a long period of time?
Do you take any kind of medicine for your asthma? I have asthma myself and used to have sharp pains when I would take a very deep breath but since I have been useing Advair ,I haven't done that . There is only one draw back to Advair and that is, it is expensive even with my insurance the copay on it is over $50.00 a month but it does improve my breathing so I guess you fight one evil with another.
Hi everyone! I'm in a bit of a bind right now. My preventive asthma medication seems to cause nausea and general cloudiness when I take them. When I stop taking them, the dizziness stops so I know that it's the cause. I've tried a handful of different medicines like Flovent, Dulera, Qvar, Advair, Pulmicort and even Singulair and they all cause this nauseating effect. I'm wondering if any of you know what this might be and any way to stop it.
My condition has improved under the new regime. The medication that was killing me was Advair. It also caused me to suffer adrenal fatigue.
I was recently diagnosed with having asthma after a near fatal reaction to an antibiotic. It just started out of nowhere. I've lived in the same town my whole life and no change in living conditions. My doctor prescribed me Pro Air HFA. Immediately I was using it more than the recommended amounts. It makes me very jittery and makes my hands shake. When I came in I was told to keep using it and then prescribed Qvar. The Qvar gave me debilitating headaches.
and allergic to cats, dust, mold and pollen, . In the summer of 2008 he was on daily doses of Singulair, Claritin, Qvar, and Rhinocort. Concerned over this amount of medication for someone this young I sought a second opinion. That doctor took him off all the medications and he was fine with no adverse reactions but occasionly felt he need an albuterol inhaler.
I take inhaled steroids and xolair shots but I still need to use albuerol 4 times the days I swim and about 2 times every day. I don't swim. My doc says I'm taking all the advair, Qvar I can take. I am 75. I don't see how the pulmonologist and I can change the meds. Heart is good. Any ideas?
The cardiologist was not at all concerned with the use of the advair but the pulmonologist is concerned that it will interfere with her heart meds. I have gone round and round with the pulmonologist and I don't want to see mom start down a path to the end. She is strong as a bull and she is getting very fed up with all of this. We live in the same town as the Mayo Clinic and I'm seriously considering a visit to that establishment. Any comments or ideas would be appreciated!
I developed asthma at age 11 and because my dad and brother were already suffering by that time, I was basically just put on the medications they were using. I've been using advair now for 16 years. The last 9 or so I've sought alternative healing solutions, have been given breathing exercises, physical exercises, diet tips, acupuncture, salt inhalers...nothing has worked for me so far.
See your MD, tell them your still having problems. They can put you on some maintenance medicine, like advair or singular. This should help.
I take Allegra, Zyrtec, Claritin, Flonase and singular, albuterol nebs and inhaler, also famotidine 2x daily I was on advair for 2months and he said stop because it did nothing for me other than change sputum from slimy to chunky and is quite pricey for no results. For kicks and giggles I have started taking garden of life immune sinus balance and clearlungs which I can honestly say for a month I felt a little different 20min after taking the herbal stuff but not so much anymore.
