Weight gain and asthma therapy?!


Question:

Weight gain and asthma therapy?

My doctor prescribed Singulair and a new inhaler as part of asthma treatment. As I have been taking it, I have noticed an increased appetite and increased waist line! Could it be associated as I know there are steroirds in the treatments?


Answers:

I take both these drugs, and I haven't experienced that side effect. Now, mind you, drugs affect different people in different ways, so just because I don't have this result doesn't mean you shouldn't have it either.

Definitely consult your doctor, and see if that can be expected. If not, may be time to hit the gym!
