Airflusal adverse reaction

[Tilantoe]

Has any body had had problems with airflusal. I was on seretide before with no problems. I don't know whether it's the airflusal it self or the fact it's 500 and just too strong. It makes my lungs feel like they are burning and then I get really shakeup and breathless for ages. Doc. Is reluctant to change it.

The leaflet for this states:

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side

effects, although not everybody gets them.

Allergic reactions: you may notice your

breathing suddenly gets worse immediately

after using AirFluSal Forspiro. You may

be very wheezy and cough or be short of

breath. You may also notice itching, a rash

(hives) and swelling (usually of the face, lips,

tongue, or throat), or you may suddenly feel

your heart beating very fast or you feel faint

and light headed (which may lead to collapse

or loss of consciousness). If you get any of

these effects or if they happen suddenly

after using AirFluSal Forspiro, stop using

AirFluSal Forspiro and tell your doctor

straight away.

Perhaps you need to speak to him again and show him the leaflet? Or try speaking to your pharmacist.
