I just got this inhaler today. So far nothing has worked but Albuterol. My doc said I shouldn't be using Albuterol as routine maintenance so she put me on this one. So far I like it but I was wondering about side effects.
I can't answer your question but I am curious about Intal. the inhaler you use, is it like a Ventolin Inhaler? I am thinking about asking my doctor about it; Right now the only thing I am using are 6-7 puffs of Albuterol a day; I was controlled with less Albuterol and Azmacort but the Azmacort stopped working and in fact made me worse.
My youngest son used Intal inhaler and nebulizer for years..you can expect similiar side effects as with Ventolin (albuterol)...it can cause heart palpitations, twitching....all side effects should actually come with your inhaler---nowadays, pharmacists must include this type info...there are also many other inhalation treatments you may benefit from....azmacort and such...and the albuterol should only be used for attacks--don't use the intal for an attack...it's action isn't the same......
Hi, My daughte used Intal for several years when her asthma was giving us a hard time. For her there were no side effects at all. From what her asthma Dr. told us it is a very safe drug. It cut down on the serverity of her asthma episodes greatly.. About a year ago she was weened off of the intal and is doing great!!! Good luck with the intal and your asthma, Lynn
I'm currently on Intal for my asthma and the only side effect is a pasty mouth. Otherwise, I have no side effects at all! I guess it depends on how your body reacts to certain meds. Hopefully you are doing ok and it doesn't affect you.
Has anyone tried Intal Cromolyn?
