I get terrible headaches on fostair, about 4 per month, lasting about 22 to 30 hours. Also muscular pain the day after resistance training (quite light weights). Serious weight gain is a big problem too Anyone have similar experiences.?

Fostair is just another form of Salbutamol/Ventolin mixed with a long acting steroid. maybe ask a health professional, and get your pressures checked. these may be a symptom of another underlying problem Mezitonka mate.

Mention it to you doctor and perhaps they can try you on a different inhaler as there are lots of different ones available. Some people do better on one than another but we are all different so what works well for one may not for another so your doctor could try you on something else.

Not what you're looking for?
