I'm 18 years old and I've been taking Advair (500) for about 4 years. I've had very persistant asthma my whole life and my Advair seems to save me from having to use my albuterol around 6 times a day. About 9 months ago i lost my voice for over 2 months. After that went away I had a break for about one month then around 6 months ago I developed what seems like a smokers cough yet I don't smoke. I just got a chest x-ray done and they said it was normal. They put me on steroids and antibiotics but it doesn't seem to be helping.
Could it be the Advair? I don't know that I can go without it even if it is. I want to get rid of this congestion in my lungs. I'm sick of coughing up mucus daily. Does anyone have any advice?
What ever you do do NOT take Singulair. My daughter was on it for three years and then committed suicide. Go onto the Singulair website and read about all of the horror stories. My daughter was also on Advair and she had very minor side effects from it. There are many asthma drugs, and homeopathic remedies out there now days. Be sure that you are working with a pulmonologist and/or an allergist instead of just a regular M.D.
