| 1 | lower and upper respiratory infecti | lump in throat, chest pain | F | 40 | 45 days | 2/2/2007 | 3 | asthma | wondering about aggression and appetite for my 10 yr old son | M | 10 | 2 years | 1/30/2007 | 4 | asthma | has helped me a great deal much better than the inhalers since it is a powder it adheres and medicates much longer. | F | 58 | 6 years | 1/26/2007 | 4 | Asthma | Severe muscle pain/aches | F | 49 | 6 months | 1/21/2007 | 3 | Athsma | Massive fungal infection, literature also showed this was the case in their studies. | Switching to Seravent to eliminate the steroid, 90% as effective on exercise induced athsma without the nasty side effects | M | 23 | 6 years | 1/13/2007 | 2 | Shortness of Breath, Wheezing | Severe weight gain. | Advair worked fairly well, but the weight gain was simply not worth it! | F | 28 | 4 weeks | 1/5/2007 | 1 | pollution induced airway obstructio | Severe balance problems- kept tipping over. Severe peripheral neuropathy, feet hurt so badly couldn't stand. Dropped things. Even scalp hurt. Heart rhythm problems. | F | 54 | 20 days | 12/22/2006 | 5 | Severe uncontrolled asthma | Yeast infection | This is definitely a wonder drug for me (I actually take the 250/50 dosage). It is as if I do not even have asthma 95+% of the time. You do have to be careful of an oral yeast infection; be sure to rinse thoroughly or, even better, brush your teeth after each dose. | M | 50 | 8 years | 11/26/2006 | 2 | Asthma | Very severe dysphonia (vocal changes and irritation). | I was on the lowest dose possible, which not only did not seem to improve my asthma whatsoever but which also caused very bad dysphonia. My job requires me to speak to people a lot and I simply could not handle hearing my voice so broken and hard to control. It sounded like I was usually on the verge of crying or having a breakdown, actually. Not really a positive thing in the workplace or on the phone. I recommend Asmanex or Qvar if you have this problem too. | F | 29 | 4 months | 11/15/2006 | 3 | copd, asthma, chronic bronchitis | I din't think I had any side effects until reading others comments. I thought my recent hip pain, loss of height, and osteopenia were age related. After a bone test I was given another perscription which is even more frightening. | I was switched from many years of flovent and serevent to just the advair. | F | 52 | 3 years | 11/12/2006 | 2 | Adult Onset Asthma | Extreme muscle spasms. I never had any as severe as when I was on this medication along with general aching. | It did help my asthma but the side effects were too extreme for me to continue | F | 49 | 6 weeks | 9/27/2006 | 1 | asthma | Definitely do not take with Sudafed. The Serevent already puts enough stress on the heart. When I took some Sudafed with it I felt my heart would leap out of my chest. Before Advair I always took sudafed for my allergies with no problem and now that I am off Advair I can take Sudafed without any problem. | Very dirty drug. My asthma worsened with each year I took this drug. I now take Asmanex and feel so much better. | F | 37 | 5 years | 9/25/2006 | 1 | Chronic cough | Extreme muscle cramping in feet and legs. Fourteen minute cramp in my calf today. Had muscle cramps with other meds. Since starting Advair cramps are more frequent and last longer. I am quitting the medication. | F | 62 | 1 weeks | 7/26/2006 | 1 | Asthma | The Advair inhaler is linked to serious side effects including severe asthma-attacks and sudden death among patients. | Food & Drug Administration: http://www.fda.gov/cder/drug/advisory/LABA.htm | M | 29 | | 6/30/2006 | 5 | Asthma | Hoarseness in voice, sometimes a dry cough | The med changed my life. I never have to use my quick acting pump anymore | F | 32 | 4 years | 6/27/2006 | 1 | asthma | made me jittery | M | 43 | 2 months | 6/8/2006 | 1 | asthma | made me jittery | M | 43 | 2 months | 6/8/2006 | 1 | asthma | severe hip pain,joint pain,fatigue,( Arthralgia and articular rheumatis mimic),extreme muscle pain bruising,yet able tp breathe. I strongly advise not to use this medicine.QVAR is as effective but doesn't damage your cartlidge | F | 34 | 2 weeks | 4/24/2006 | 1 | asthma | severe tachycardia, irregular heart beat | (500/50) my best advice for this medication is to keep track of any potential side effects. advair was included in the semi-recent lawsuit brought against the FDA. be aware that there are a significant number of advair related dealths due to heart attack. | F | 23 | 6 months | 4/21/2006 | 5 | asthma flair up | excitability, but it wore off when i took it for a few days. | F | 31 | 14 days | 4/7/2006 |
