other alternatives to steroids
My doctors prescribed a steroid for my asthma. Having a lot of side effects. ( heart palipatations, dizziness, severe headaches, eye problems. anxiety) What other med can I possible use to decrease side effects? Any meds without steroids?
Hi.
Thank you for your post and question! Could you share what type of steroid your doctor prescribed? Is it an oral medication or an inhaler? Knowing this will help me provide the most accurate answer to your question. All the best. John. community moderator. I absolutely hate steroids because they make me ravenous.
I'll take them if I'm sick with bronchitis or a sinus infection but I usually take Mucinex DM if I'm sick (the green ones) which is something my allergist prefers 
Thanks for following up. I'm glad to learn that you and your doctor have a plan so when you get sick. Personally, I do better with a plan. All the best, Lauren (team member)
