A new doctor started me on dulera after telling me I used my rescue inhaler too often. I have many health issues and my asthma is the least. This medicine instantly caused burning in my mouth even after the suggested rinsing of my month after use. After two weeks I have such a severe sore throat I can barely swallow or speak! My sinuses are completely inflamed and I’m having headaches. I already have a compromised immune system, seizures and bone loss so after doing research on this medication I am shocked that this doctor prescribed it for me! I stopped taking it yesterday and will never take it again.

Am worried that if I continued him on this it will have long term affects, supposidely the vocal ticks will go away after use of the drug.

Only consider it as a last resort and MAKE sure you do your homework before looking at any PPI. They are needed for many and work for many but are hard to come off and will screw your insides to bits if you shouldnt be on them. If you get any breakthrough acid dont double up instead insist on further investigation. I personally am worse now on them that I was before I started and will never use them again unless its a life threatening situation

I take 150mg twice a day ....is that ok?

After 24 hours, I felt so much better. The fever and body aches all but gone. I still had respiratory symptoms and a bit dizzy, but I would definitely take it again.

Decreased libido, constipation
