I have been using Flohale inhaler which contains fluticasone proportianate. it is being stopped from the market. I went to doctor, then he has suggested to use budecort but it is not effective. Can you please suggest any alternative for Flohale inhaler. ?

I take xanax, ambilify, zrytec, albuterol inhaler, morphine, and fluticasone propionate. I go to a pain management Dr and tested positive for methamphetamine. I was immediately dropped. I've had two neck surgeries and my pain gets worse. What should I do? Thank you. Sincerely, Cajun lady.

can i continue lutica cream for lifetime? pls let me know its side effects, ## Hello, Rinki! How are you? The FDA lists this cream as containing the active ingredient Fluticasone, which is a steroid, so you should only use it, as long as your doctor approves. There are some risks to long-term use of steroids, even topically and they may actually worsen some conditions. The typical side effects may possibly include skin irritation, dryness, redness, acne and rash. Is there anything else I can help with?

I was prescribed Avamys by a Dr especially because i sleep with a cpap machine and i struggle to keep my nose open (since 2009), therefore i rip the mask off at night, during sleep. After using Avamys this year (with great results) i have been sleeping better and better and longer with my machine. The problem that i have is in the holder. I have used the product now for two months and found that i have to go and buy an extra one every month to make it through the month. I struggle to use (press) the holder correctly and then about 15 days later it is empty and i only use it at night? I assume with all my trying i am losing about half of the medicine? Is it possible to get a better holder? Thank you for the product. ## This website does not manufacture, nor sell any medications, it is an...

I was suffering from allergic bronchitic, I had used Fintal Inhaler (Sodium Cromoglycate), this given me more relief for many years. Now again I am affecting by allergic bronchitic, but now Fintal Inhaler is not available in market. My question is 1. Is there any equivalent Inhaler to Fintal Inhaler with same salt composition ? 2. what about fluticasone propionate based combitide Inhaler ? Will this work same way as Fintal Inhaler ?

Well, my husband and I tried to get our Fluticasone refilled today and we were told that there is a shortage and the pharmacy said it could be months before they get a supply in. They said they will order it every day. Doesn't give us much consolation. Have asked our doctors to prescribe something else. Well my insurance company will pay some on Nasacort and my husband's company will only pay half which makes it too expensive for him to purchase. What the heck is going on with these drugs companies? Also really like the fact that we are kept in the loop on this one. Didn't know there was a shortage until it was time to refill this month. They have known about the shortage since April when Par stopped making Fluticasone. ## We live in Aloha, OR. Last weekend my husband and I ...
