I just switched over to this from Breo , does anyone feel worse for up to an hour using this. Kind of shakey and breathing a little worse. I had this with breo , which was a little stronger than Advair. i have the 100/50 which is twice a day. know you have to give it a few days for your body to adjust.

@MW in Iowa I use the Advair spray inhaler 230/20, two sprays twice a day and wish it went up higher. I have COPD (my emphysema is at Stage 3 Severe) so I can use all the help I can get. I also use Incruse Ellipta which is only once a day I had problems with Spiriva as it was no longer helping me. I have no problems with Advair.

I thought that it sounded familiar, I had to google and see that purple disc. Yes, several years ago I was on this and it actually made my Asthma worse. I was on it for no longer than a week due to the side effects that I was experiencing. I spoke to my doctor about it and she promptly changed my prescription.
I currently use Alvesco 80 mcg. twice a day.

I used to use advair. I didn't have any side effects at all. It was an effective medication to prevent asthma episodes.

I know we all have different reactions. That is what makes us all individuals. I have heard of it causing palpitations, PVCs and even atrial fibrillation-flutter. It did make me sort of sick in the beginning and gave me the shakes and felt weak. After a while, that all went away but I kept getting sinus infections which led to worse asthma and my pulmonologist changed me to Anoro. After 3 years on that, he has felt I was a failure and now I am on Trelegy.

@MW in Iowa My asthma greatly improved and I needed less preventive medication. I still keep albuterol for any emergencies or bad experiences, but.....frankly, when I moved into my current house ,,(a newer house), it greatly improved.
