Beclomethasone "I've been on Qvar 40 mg, 2 shots twice a day for over 12 months. My morning cough disappeared when I first started taking Qvar, then after several months it started again. I've also noticed that I've been having more sinus issues and respiratory infections: flu-like symptoms. I'm 66 and usually never get sick, but I believe Qvar has compromised my immune system. I've also noticed a lack of energy and upper back pain and muscle aches in my thighs. My voice has been affected also. I don't know why my doctor has me on twice the recommended dosage. I have early stages of emphysema. I wonder if the side effects of Qvar are worth it... I'm going to stop Qvar and see what happens. I'm tired of feeling sick and rundown."

"I had bronchitis after a cold, treated successfully with antibiotics. But even after the infection cleared, I was still coughing, especially with air temperature changes, steam from the shower, or certain smells. Saw GP for follow-up appointment, and he gave me Beclomethasone 100 mcg inhaler, 2 puffs twice daily for this. It really worked well, within 24 hours symptoms improved, and after a week, back to normal. No side effects noticed, would recommend!"

Beclomethasone "I have been on Qvar for 12 days now, and my breathing has improved very much. I still need to use my rescue inhaler once during the night, but I feel like this will not be ongoing. Yesterday, I had to go outside for a bit, and it was quite cold. As soon as I finished what I had to do, without thinking, I turned and ran back inside. After I was back inside, it dawned on me that just a week ago running was out of the question, as was walking very far. My 25-yard dash did not cause me any breathing problems. So far, I have not experienced any side effects either, for which I am very grateful. I just wish it wasn't so expensive."
