Guest guest Posted February 19, 2008 Report Posted February 19, 2008 Hi everyone,I'm on Advair (and have been on all of the doses), and I have to say, for me, it's the best ever! I had continuous breathing problems on other medications, and I was first on Advair 500/50...then was decreased to 250/50 (which I am still on during the fall and winter), and in the spring and summer, I can decrease to 100/50.If I'm on a higher dose than I need to be, I do experience some side-effects (blurred vision, dizziness, and inability to sleep). As soon as I have those symptoms, I know I need a lower dose. My doc is really cooperative with my changing doses of Advair, so if you do have side-effects like these, you might need a lower dose of the med. For me, the correct dose keeps me breathing and keeps me side-effect free. And remember that when you start Advair, it takes a bit to build up in your system (most say 2 weeks), so you won't experience a change right away. Similarly, I sometimes experience the side-effects for a bit after I change doses.Again though...this is just my experience!Be well, Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
