I am a 25 year old female and I have only been on advair for less than a month. I have already gained ten pounds!!! I also have the very hoarse voice (sometimes i can hardly talk) the leg cramps and that constant feeling of something in my throat that I just can't clear, not to mention the occasional blurred vision. I was prescribed the advair because I have moderate asthma...I really think its making it worse. So sorry that all these people had to go through what they did but I am very thankful that they shared their stories. I was unsure of whether or not I should stop taking this...now I have made up my mind that I am.
Are you aware that you need to wash your mouth out after you take Advair? It can leave a film in your mouth and in the back of your throat that can cause tenderness. Its normal for everyone, my entire family takes it. Advair works wonders for me.
