Steroid inhalers. side effects

Primrose

Curious to know whether anybody who uses a steroid inhaler for asthma or to reduce coughs has suffered tremors as one of the side effects.
Did changing to a non steroid inhaler eliminate the problem?

Never happened to me with the inhalers, but years ago when I was on the tablet version I had the Ventilen (sp) shakes.


A friend cannot take the generic version of asthma inhalers even though the chemist try to push them on her. The GP actually writes on the prescription she must have the branded ones.
