I have been on Advair 500/50 for 2 years taking 1 puff twice daily. I have had these side effects: weight gain dry skin itchy skin pain in muscles and joints, mostly legs thin skin on arms bleeding problems/ clotting disorder rapid heart beat thinning hair difficulty sleeping thirsty throughout the night dental problems water retention heartburn I hate taking this drug but it does help keep my COPD(emphysema) under control. I get depressed at times due the side effects of this drug and the impact it has on my life and how I feel about myself. I often think of just stopping the drug and seeing how I feel but I am afraid to.
