Some of you are posting that your children have been prescribed Advair and I am very concerned about this....

I am not a medical professional, but I do know that ADVAIR HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED BY THE FDA FOR USE BY CHILDREN.

It states in the pamphlet that comes with the medication that Advair is for people over 12 and "the safety and effectiveness of Advair Diskus in children under 12 has not been established... Controlled clinical studies have shown that orally inhaled corticosteroids may cause a reduction in growth...in pediatric patients."

Please, if you have a child under 12 that has been prescribed Advair, talk to your doctor about the safety and possible risks and ask about finding an FDA approved alternative.
