 2  child asthma Anxiety, inability to focus, irritable, mood swings, out of control behavior My son has been on Pulmicort (inhaled through the nebulizer) for about 5 years (he is almost 6). Unfortunately he still has at least one or two serious episodes per year that generally turn into pneumonia. His Dr. switched him to Asmanex hoping to avoid these issues. After just a few days my normally easy going docile son, was getting reports sent home from his teacher that he was "acting out" in class, not concentrating, and unable to keep his hands and feet to himself. I assumed he was having trouble adjusting to Kindergarten , although found it odd that he did very well for the first month, and starting having problems in the second month. I noticed he was acting strangely at home as well..Being very short tempered with his twin brother, not sitting well at the dinner table , not sleeping well, and having tantrums. All of these things are TERRIBLY out of character. Only after a full three weeks did my husband say "He is acting like he does when he is on that steroid." (he has behavioral issues whenever he is very ill and has to do a round of prednisone)... It was like a lightbulb went off over my head! I took him off of the Asmanex and returned to using the Pulmicort. Within two days his teacher said he was a completely different child! She confided in me that she was actually preparing to contact me for a meeting to discuss the possibility of testing for ADHD, or even to see if my son was on the autism spectrum. I am really glad we made the connectio M 5 3 weeks
