Has anyone heard about the Advair discus (for COPD) being dangerous or fatal to users?
Question:
Answers:
The Advair Diskus Inhaler is a very safe and effective medication and has very few side effects associated with its use. The steriodal medication in the inhaler works locally in the lung with very little systemic activity. I have never heard of any death caused by Advair.
If you have any concern or question of the risks or benifits of this medication in your individual situation, please talk to your doctor or pharmasist. They will know your spacific situation and any special risks or beifits to you from Advair.
Anyone with COPD using Advair and discontinues its use, without professional medical advise could pose a great risk to themselves including the possiblity of death.

I use Advair 500/50 twice a day for COPD. I asked my doctor about any danger yesterday. He told me not to quit using it. He wasn't too concerned about it.
