Anyone use Budesonide inhalation with good results?

Posted by noisylungs31 @noisylungs31, 2 days ago

Diagnosed with asthma in 2019. Have been using inhalation saline 3% and cromolyn sodium with some success to relieve mucus buildup, coughing, and wheezing. Now the good effects appear to have worn off. I am severely sensitive to steroids and resort to Flovent only when wheezing gets so noisy, it keeps me awake. Lately, I wake up around 5 am congested, with breathing difficulty. I get up and sit upright. Seems like my meds inhaled before bedtime have worn off.
I wondered if Budesonide might help. I have some on hand to use.
Anybody here use it with good results?

@ricktweld Did you sign up for their discount program? We pay nothing for Dupixent. My daughter has done well on it for several months & I am dying to know if it helps prevent bacterial infections (the reason the Dr had her switch). She is a college athlete & picked up every virus last year making her really sick for several months. Dr. swears it will help. I tried one shot and got super inflamed with bad headaches also so I didn’t continue. But I have a neck injury & think I am atypical.

That's correct. Most discounts from Pharma manufacturer aren't available to persons with insurance.
