Asthma, Maintenance
"I&#039;ve been using Qvar for about two weeks. I used Advair before for years, and though it was extremely effective in treating my asthma, it kept making me lose my voice, so my doctor suggested trying Qvar. 

I happen to be out of my Albuterol inhaler until I see my doctor later this week, so I&#039;m experiencing Qvar with no backup system, and I find it to be very ineffective against my asthma. I&#039;m using it twice a day, two puffs each time, as prescribed, and though it doesn&#039;t make my asthma worse, it doesn&#039;t appear to improve it either. Except for short spurts during the middle of the day, which might just be incidental. Anyway, I&#039;m going to ask my doctor for another alternative to Advair because Qvar&#039;s just not working."
