Common Questions and Answers about What does symbicort do
symbicort
I recently developed some PVCs (heart palpatations), and I would really like to use a long term asthma controller in place of the symbicort that does not have increased heart rate as a side effect.
Are there any somewhat effective asthma medications (long term controller, not rescue inhaler) that do not have increased heart rate as one of the side effects?
I would really like to know, because I hate taking that symbicort.
There is another new medication called symbicort, that is what I use and I LOVE it. It takes care of all of my chronic asthma conditions and I use an emergency inhaler for when I have a trigger that causes an attack. Check your side effects. I know for a fact that Singulair can cause ear ache and chest infection as well as other annoying side effects because I have had them, I got off of the medication because I didn't see improvement, my friend stayed on it and loves what it does for her.
Symbicort does have a long acting bronchodilator which CAN increase blood pressure and pulse rate. I would keep track of the differences in a journal and let your doctor know in your next appointment. You may need to change meds or change doses to manage the increase. Just a matter of playing with meds to lower their interactions.
Hmm, really? That is so interesting! I am only on an oral contraception at this time.
So Symbicort can cause pupillary abnormalities? Is it specifically known to cause tadpole pupil, tonic pupil or pupil movement? Or all of what I am experiencing? Do you know any more about this or the mechanism by which Symbicort causes that side effect?
Thanks so much!

These are not adverse reactions from Symbicort. Please make an appointment with a gynecologist and/or an endocrinologist.
The antibiotics alone will predispose you thrush, the steroid in the Symbicort will also . Do you rinse your mouth after each use? I find that if I don't do this, I too get thrush. Simply rinsing my mouth after each use prevents the yeast from coming back.
Taking probiotics because you are on antibiotics isn't a bad idea either, or eating yogurt with active cultures.
Also, are you able to just leave a message with your doctor and have the medicine called in to the pharmacy?
Dulera seems to work the best for me. Symbicort does absolutely nothing for me. Everyone metabolizies medications defferently, so Symbicort may not be the best choice for you.
You do want to get off the prednisone as soon as possible. DO NOT just stop taking it. That can cause serious problems. Long term use of pred will cause a host of problems from diabetes, liver and heart damage, adrenal problems... It is not a medication that should be used as a maintenance medication.
Alergia made me dry up too much but then it started making me feel odd, so I waited a few days and tried Zertic, that was the same reaction, so I again waited a few days and went back with Cleartin, same reaction. My PC doctor did give me the Singulair since I do have Asthma. He had me try Symbicort but that stuff really made me dry, and so nasty tasting. I can however use just a steroid inhaler along with the Nasonex nose spray, it seemed to work very well for me.
CORONARY, PNEUMONIA, PULMONARY, how long, where is pain, what does it feel like? Your chest feeling heavy, short of breath? Non productive cough? (dry hacking cough) Temp? Feeling bad? How are sinuses? Facial pressure pain also? Please describe your condition, I would have to be Nostradamus to know what is ailing you with the minimal description you provided. SEE A PHYSICIAN, PLEASE, and let me know what your other symptoms are......
Saw pulmonologist last February (winter) for acute onset of SOBE. FEV1 53%, DO 30%. He recommended CT scan and echocardiogram. I'm 63 female 112# 5'3" I also see a rheumotologist for UCTD and am on Placquenil and prednisone (5 mg or less QD during flares.) Was put on Spiriva and Symbicort. Had to stop Spiriva due to intolerable cholinergic effects. Am fine so far with just the Symbicort. Talked with Rheumy about value of CT scan and if it would change any of the treatments.
