Guest guest Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 My son got into a pretty bad asthma flare up this past week so I had to start him on inhaled steroids this morning. I told the doctor that I hate the idea of him having to be on this stuff so he said I could just pulse it for two weeks during flare ups. Does anyone have a child on inhaled steroids? And what should I expect as far as effects on his behavior and body from this? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Are you using Pulmicort or Albuterol?My son used them for walking pneumonia a few weeks ago and the effects are very short lived but Albuterol can cause a bit of hyperactivity / aggression. These things disappeared after a day or two of discontinuing the treatment.
