Asmanex HFA 200mcg Oral Inh (120) Side Effects: My Recent Experience has Me Worried

I had a similar experience. I had chest tightness when I first started using Asmanex. I called my doctor, and they said it could be because I wasn't using the inhaler correctly. They showed me the right technique, and it cleared up. Maybe check with your doctor again.

You might want to keep a symptom diary and track when you take your Asmanex and when your side effects appear. This could help your doctor determine if the medication is causing your issues. You can also talk to a pharmacist. They are specially trained to help deal with these issues.

I had some issues with Asmanex and thought they were just a side effect but it turned out that I was also taking my allergy medicine and the combination was making my symptoms worse. It might be worth talking to your doctor about other medications you are taking.

I've been on Asmanex for a while now and I've had some similar issues. I found that using a spacer with my inhaler helped a lot with the throat irritation. It might be worth a try if you're not already using one.

I had horrible throat irritation and a sore throat when I first started using Asmanex. I switched to a different inhaler, and it cleared up. I think you might want to consult your doctor about that.

I've had some flu-like symptoms and that's what scared me. I was worried my asthma was getting worse, but my doctor said it was just a side effect. It did go away after a week. I hope that doesn’t happen to you.

Have you tried rinsing your mouth after using the inhaler? It can help with throat irritation. I also use a spacer, and that makes a big difference. It might be worth a try.

I switched to Asmanex from another asthma controller and I also experienced headaches and throat irritation. The irritation went away after a few weeks, but the headaches are still here. My doctor said it could be due to the medication, but if it doesn’t go away, you should definitely discuss with the doctor.
