Fostair shakiness

I am due to try Fostair but in the past one attempt caused my legs to be shaky. I gather this may wear off. Does anyone know is this is the case?

Everyone is different and initial side effects usually wear off once your body/system gets used to the new medication. But if side effects continue after the first couple of weeks, you'll need to review the pros & cons of Fostair with your doctor.

I didn't have any shakiness from Fostair but I do get these side effects from Ventolin (for about an hour) and Prednisolone (for a couple of days), before things settle down.

I used fostair nexthaler 200/6 2 puffs twice a day. It does make my hands shake a little after using it but dont really notice it any more. I am on a the maximum dose for this inhaler but it worth it to keep my asthma under control.

I had a nasty start to using fostair, but all wore off. Took about a month to work for me, but was worth the effort.

I take forstair and having changed tomit about 3 years ago.. it is brilliant and so much better than my previous Seretide. Didn't have too many side effects but if you stick with it, defiantely worth it.
