The only real problem for me was joint pain. I have sciatica and pain in my back and hips and this stuff aggregates it. I cant take Advair or Flovent as they discontinued Flovent and Advair made me very sick. This is day 6 and breathing is great just hope pain subsides.
Worked as described. No major side effects.
Severe back pain, jaw pain and can’t close my mouth all the way to eat food, knee pain, popping feeling in lungs, lucid dreams
I have received several inhalers where the numbering is off. E.g., the dose marker goes from 20 to 29 instead of 19. It's impossible to tell if powder is coming out or not, so can be very confusing. I'm looking for a way to document and report this.
I started to have trouble breathing at night last year. It was so bad I had to get up to not die in my sleep. I was first prescribed an emergency inhaler that didn't make a difference. Eventually, came Twisthaler. It was confusing, but it works. But, my biggest problem is with my nasal passageway restricting from the same allergy that restricts my lungs. I have to pair my Twisthaler with a nasal spray for allergies, or I'd still die in my sleep.
Lifelong severe asthma. NOTHING worked to control it, doctors all thought I was nuts. After a month of Asmanex it's like my asthma was GONE. You can't miss a dose but that's well worth it to gwt some sleep!
I have been taking this medication for years. At one point about 3 years ago I did switch to Singulair because of insurance/price and I regretted it within a couple of weeks, I got pneumonia. So I went right back to it. It is the only one that works for me. Without it I have no doubt I would either be dead or be very disabled.
Refused to take this medication 2 years ago because I don't suffer from asthma and I exercise 4 times a week. But pneumologist insists I could be breathing better based on my test results. After less than 1 week of taking this poison, I started feeling chest tightness, overall weakness, nausea and insomnia. So I took this so-called medecine and threw in the trash. Thanks for everything doc.
Weird,Vivid Dreams, joint pain in hands, lower back pain, irrirable
Worked well for my 12 year old's asthma, but he got anxiety after about 3 months. (Prior use of singular had given him anxiety too.) Had to stop because he got so emotional.
after trying other inhalers without success my doctor put me on asmanex. within 5 days it started to work. Could not believe the relief I got.
I found that the meds by themselves didn't always work so i had heard that different veggies worked if you ate regularly so I start drinking smoothies two to three times a week with veggies I did't like but worked well in smoothies and my attack almost stop completely
I have used Symbacort, but was plagued with cronic bouts of thrush. I have been using Asmanex for a little over a month, and it has helped improve my breathing with less need of my rescue inhaler. On the negative side, I'm pretty sure my vision is getting a little blurry and this past week, and for no apparent reason, my lower back and hip joints have been causing me discomfort, and I have been experiencing abdominal discomfort. I can't say for sure that this med has caused these issues, but I include that info since those are side effects listed for this med.
Opened the container after it was completely used...down to zero. Found lots of powder left in container. Certainly not good. This method of having bulk product, not measured shows a very poor dispensing method.
How much did the "doctor" get paid by the drug maker to switch me from Advair??? According to the informational insert, this is a potentially dangerous "medicine"!
It took a while to get used to the unique inhalation steps but Symbacort and Advair only helped me a little bit. Real reason I changed was price. This is still way over-priced and I feel sorry for people without insurance but it has been effective in reducing bouts and severity of asthma attacks.
developed severe itching on scalp and ears;itching and rash on legs & feet continued to worsen even after I stopped taking. No relief until I took a steroid dose pak. Ins. let me go back to Flovent
Used asmanex and Spiriva to control chronic coughing and wheezing. I did very well for 2 months but was hospitalized with sinus infection and uncontrollable coughing.
this junk had no effect whatsoever!
