My asthma is well controlled and I take one puff of fostair 100/6 (I’ve had asthma for about a year now.) I’m wondering if anyone has any experience with negative side effects from their inhaler? I think I have some of the symptoms of hypothyroidism (weight gain, tiredness, slightly low heart rate). Could this be caused by my inhaler or completely unrelated?

Hi
It’s unlikely to be the inhaler. Most people find that if anything people find that Fostair gives tachycardia, so a faster HR, than Brachycardia, a slow HR. When you can, contact your GP you can ask for a blood test for hypothyroidism if you are concerned, but personally I suspect it’s an unrelated issue to your inhaler.
Hope this helps
I've been on Fostair a few years and I don't suffer those symptoms. x
Thanks, do you get any negative side effects or has it been ok?
