For Asthma, Maintenance "I had been on Qvar for a couple of years. I didn’t realize for a while, but when the inhaler changed to the RediHaler, my health went downhill. My thyroid was affected, and I ended up with adrenal fatigue as well. No appetite, and after 9 months, I was dropping weight fast. What finally clicked was my super, super dry mouth-thrush. I started researching and found that the RediHaler can have side effects, but they are rare. The day after I stopped this medication, my appetite was back. 2 1/2 months later, my energy is slowly getting back to normal, but I need to rest a lot."

For Asthma, Maintenance "I have tried using the RediHaler 3 separate times. Each time, I get hoarse within 2 days! My mouth feels like it is full of cotton. I rinse well and even gargle with fresh water, but symptoms persist. QVAR 80 was terrific with a spacer. Now I will have to switch to Flovent, which was never as effective as QVAR 80. TEVA, you made a big mistake; your greed will cost you many customers. I suspect there may be a class action lawsuit in your future!!"

For Asthma, Maintenance "I've been taking the 80 mcg for going on 3 weeks now, and I don't feel like it's doing any good. I am still using my rescue inhaler 2-4 times a day. I also, in the last week, have developed what feels like a lump in my throat and trouble swallowing/dry throat, along with headaches."
