Uploaded and Shared in Youtube by: UCO360 The FDA recently added additional warnings for four major asthma medications. These include Advair, Symbicort, Foradil, and Serevent. These warnings were issued due to studies that suggested use of long-acting-beta-agonists without a corticosteriod along with it, could potentially be harmful. In the study they found that patients who took LABA drugs without a corticosteriod were more prone to hospitialization, breathing complications, and maybe even death related to asthma problems. The purpose of these warnings is to make sure that people know how to use these medications and do so properly. When they use them correctly the medications are very effective in controlling asthma.
