Alvesco Side Effects
You might experience dry or irritated throat, hoarseness, a bad taste in your mouth, or coughing when taking this medication. These effects are generally mild, but if they persist or worsen, it’s important to consult your healthcare provider. Most individuals taking this medication do not encounter serious side effects. However, be vigilant for any serious symptoms such as persistent headache, vision changes, poor wound healing, puffy face, unexpected weight gain, muscle pain or weakness, or changes in mental state like depression or agitation, and report them promptly.
In rare instances, this medication could cause a sudden worsening of breathing issues or asthma right after use. If this occurs, use your quick-relief inhaler and seek medical attention immediately. Although a severe allergic reaction to this drug is uncommon, seek immediate medical help if you experience symptoms such as rash, itching or swelling (particularly of the face, tongue, or throat), severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing.
This is not an exhaustive list of side effects. If you experience any unusual symptoms not mentioned here, contact your healthcare provider for advice.

What happens if I stop taking my steroid inhaler?
If a patient stops taking their steroid inhaler without consulting their healthcare provider, they may experience a worsening of their asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms. This can include increased shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, and a higher risk of asthma attacks or COPD exacerbations. It is important for patients to discuss any changes to their medication regimen with their healthcare provider to ensure proper management of their condition.
