I was on Advair 3 days. On the third day I was rushed to the emergency room and treated for shortness of breath, chest pain and my mouth, throat and tongue were on fire. I was admitted to ICU and was treated for cardiac arrest. The shortness of breath was caused from an asthma attack brought on by advair, the chest pain and upper backpain (which I still was suffering from when released after 3 days in hospital) caused an inflammation of my chest wall and my mouth, throat and tongue were treated for second degree burns. I believe all these complications I endured were caused from advair. I believe advair could have killed me if I did not seek medical attention when I did. I do NOT recommend this medication to anyone at any age.
