After never having asthma in my life I was put on Advair 100/50 at 34 ...
I have been on it for a little over a year but I have been reading these side effects and wanted to try and ween myself off this stuff. I cut back to 1 per day then 1 every other day and now I am down to 1 per week. Hopefully I am going to be off it soon. The side effects are real with the weight problems people are having with this stuff .... My question is does anyone else have the feeling in their throat like there is an obstruction or a lump? or like something is stuck in the back of their throat?? Does this go away ?
I rinsed my mouth and brushed my teeth after every use .... so I am not sure if this will go away with lower use or not

I have been on 20mg lisinopril for over a year. Didn't notice anything out of the ordinary for almost whole year. In May, I began getting these bizarre "rashes" and marks over both arms, hands, and legs almost daily. Thought it was from humidity. It is now Feb. in the Northeast and rashes/hives continue! Biggest concern, though, has been the increasing thinning of my once thick, beautiful head of hair. Told by derms, doctors, etc. geneticin had nothing to do with meds. I KNOW this is not genetic and thinning so bad, my hairdresser recently confirmed it, saying worse on right side of crown of head. Thinking of discontinuing lisinopril. Any advise?
