I have read, with great interest, all the postings about the side-effects of Advair, as I havae suffered none of them. I have had severe asthma for the past 19 years. Only, after starting on 500/50 Advair Diskus, have I done so well. I went through all the testing at National Jewish Hospital, Denver, UT Southwest Medical School, Dallas, TX and only after starting the Advair 500/50, have I been able to be off the prednisone. I have only been on prednisone two times in the past 2 and 1/2 years - great for me and my past history.
I am sorry for those who have experienced side-effects as I truly believe that Advair has saved my life. I have not been hospitalized nor suffered severe attacks since being on Advair since starting it in 2002.
