I've been using Asmanex HFA 200mcg Oral Inh (120) for a few months now, and while it has helped control my asthma, I've started experiencing some concerning side effects. I've had a persistent headache and irritation in my nose and throat, which is making it difficult to enjoy life. I've also had some chest irritation ever since using it. I've read the possible side effects list, and it seems like these symptoms are mentioned. I've read that I might have a weak adrenal gland if I have these symptoms, but I feel unsure. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Should I be worried about the side effects I've been having? Are these common or should I switch to another medication? I've been trying to tough it out but I'm starting to think I need to go to the doctor. I'm hoping to hear from people who are familiar with this medication and can provide some insight. This is really starting to get to me and want to know if others have similar issues. Should I just switch to a different medicine? I just don't know what to do.
