FOSTAIR
I was switched to Fostair from Qvar and Ventolin. The first dose of Fostair I developed a flashing arc in my left eye - silent migraine. My asthma is no longer controlled so following the nurse's instruction leaflet I took two puffs of Fostair, I developed a bad headache on the left side of my head

New to forum
Hi, I have had a chronic throat clearing issue for the past 4 motnhs. Went to Doctor and saw ENT specialist. He has recommended use of Inhaled Steroid Qvar 50 twice a day. When I saw the asthma nurse recently she said that chronic throat clearing is a symptom of ashtma, so does anyone else have this

Fostair Help Please
My asthma changed me to fostair last week as Qvar wasn't controlling my asthma very well. Only thing is I've had a few side effects, can't stop shaking and my anxiety has gone and raised heart rate. I've been taking it since Wednesday 1 puff twice a day. Will this go away or should I see my GP?

update from yesterday
I am starting to feel better and although I am still coughing it is not as much as yesterday or as strong. I have been taking my Qvar inhaler more and it along with the tablets ( steriods and antibiotics ) seem to be working. Am back at work tomorrow morning and will see how I get on.

Confused
Hi there! I'm new here. As the title says really, I'm confused. I'm 59, took early retirement nearly two years ago and live with my husband and an assortment of animals, including 10 cats (soon to become 11). We also have llamas and a pig on our 2.5 acres. Over the past 10 years or more, I had what I

Price gouging? Qvar
Qvar is a corticosteroid that helps control asthma. It has been a great medicine for me. In the last 4 years I have personally experienced a rate hike from $40.00 for 1 Qvar inhaler to $200.00! I need this medicine, but it is cost prohibitive. I have private insurance and am not on Obamacare. If
