For Asthma "After my recovery period from the flu and pneumonia, I continued to take Dulera and suffered migraines and headaches, thrush twice, laryngitis, and the absolute worst muscle cramps and spasms that would bring me to tears. Frequently. I am so relieved that this is from the Dulera, and if I stop it, this will all go away. I have developed shaking in my hands and fingers as well... I don't know if this is related."

For Asthma, Maintenance "I've been using this for approx. 6 months, and my asthma has never been better. However, it causes me terrible muscle spasms all over my body, and I've gained over 10 pounds. I've tried lowering the dose and taking extra potassium and magnesium to see if it lessens the spasms, to no avail. I'm going to have to stop taking it."

For Asthma, Maintenance "I was forced to use Dulera after getting a new job, and Advair went from $0 to $160 a month. I have been on Dulera for about a month total, what I can tell you is I hate the side effects of it. I have spasms in my pecs and calves, which always seem to be noticed about 30 minutes to an hour after I use the inhaler. Shaking in my hands and the occasional blurred vision. I wish I could go back to Advair, but insurance won’t budge, and I can’t afford it. I find it easier to use my rescue inhalers than keep taking Dulera."

For Asthma "Been on Dulera for about 3 weeks, had to go to the ER due to muscle spasm. Not worth it. I have also gained weight. Might help with breathing, but every muscle in my body is having spasm."
