  • Side effects include weight gain as well as mood swings and as others have said here, fitful nights in bed. Your body can become so reliant on this that it ceases making its own anti inflammatories. You will feel weak and sick coming off this so it is best to use ventolin and anti histamines after ceasing use.

  • @bone2thebone same.

  • She is so cute!!! Such a soothing voice. I know what Advair Diskus is now! :D

  • lmao, I hope you guys know nightmares are a part of life, not just a side effect of a inhaler. I swear some people just use excuses for the dumbest things.

  • shit makes me horny!

  • yea happens to me strange dreams, and can make you feel depressed as well

  • My 8 year old had his first nightmare after being on Advair for 5 days. Is this a side effect?

  • Know that you can die if you stop taking this medicine. This little unimportant fact was never mentioned to me by my doctor before he put me on it. Now they keep raising the price of the medicine and there is no generic. Thanks Glaxo Smith Kline, this drug was approved by the FDA in 2000, the truth is they don't know what the long term side effects will be. Do yourself a favor and learn more about Glaxo Smith Kline. The makers of Advair and other dangerous medicines.

  • Heres other side affects of advair - Although it works for me, but I've also have gotten the majority of these side affects - Upper respiratory infections, headaches, and a sore throat are common side effects that have been reported with Advair. Side effects that are less common can include a runny nose, shakiness, and increased sweating.

  • I guess that would explain me losing some hair that I've recently noticed. & Im only 19 lol
