Flovent is the only asthma prevention drug that has worked for me. Once I was unable to get a refill for a couple of weeks, and I noticed a significant difference in my lung capacity, wheezing and chronic cough.

I never had asthma just a cold. My doctor prescribe this drug for whizzing he heard. I took this drug for five days. My feet started to swell, breathing problems, and anxiety attacks and I'm menopausal. Emergency room visit for me. Changed doctors and waiting for all of these symptoms to go away.

My 9 yr old daughter has recently been on flovent daily for the past month. It has helped her recover..... however, I have noticed that her appetite has increased ALOT! She is constantly hungry. Has anyone ever had this type of side effect? Should I be concerned?

My 6 yr. old son took Flovent for over a month. During this time his classroom teacher, t-ball coach, and his parents (me) noticed an emotional change. My son would become very emotional. He cried A LOT. I took him off Flovent (thank goodness) I have my son back.

I have asthma and NTM. When using Flovent my breathing is much stronger and my lung volume is optimal.
