Comment:
Longtime Pulmacort user. Insurance pushed Asthma doctor to change. Transition was difficult. Insomnia and nausea over, but very intense dreams. Concentration on work and activities is different. Asmanex is doing a great job with my breathing, just not as active. Hoping the activity level comes back.

Comment:
As a respiratory therapist & life long asthma sufferer, I chose this inhaler in the 220mcg x 60 doses after cost & result comparison. I found it more affordable for me since I have to pay out of pocket for any asthma preventative. I am able to use just 1 puff a day so my 60 puff inhaler lasts 2 months at half the cost of other inhaled steroids.

Comment:
I am very satisfied with this inhaler. I was previously taking Advair. It has stopped working as well as before. I had developed nighttime asthma in addition to the asthma attacks during the day. I am proud to say I have not been woke up at all at night with asthma attacks any longer.

Comment:
How much did the "doctor" get paid by the drug maker to switch me from Advair???
According to the informational insert, this is a potentially dangerous "medicine"!

I have COPD with a bad shortness of breath. When I was switched ti this drug my symptons have slowly detoriated for the last five months. When going back to the old drug I have noticed improvement.
