Advair
Advair is a drug I take, but am hoping some day to never have to use again. I feel it contributes to weight gain for one thing. I also don't think it would do anything as far as raising saturation levels, at least it doesn't for me. It is a very common drug given to people with COPD and other breathing problems. If you have seen the commercial on TV where someone who supposedly has COPD takes a puff of Advair and then practically can leap in the air, in my opinion this person cannot suffer from much more than mild COPD. I have been able to cut my drug usage in half from previous levels after stem cell therapy and my supplement program, but I still take Advair. It simply treats the symptoms as well as it can, it does nothing to help reverse the cause of COPD and regenerate the lungs.

I think Advair is helpful for shortness of breath and opening up the bronchial tubes but it does nothing for oxygen saturation unless you are suffering a severe asthma attack. The side effects I have experienced are 30 pound weight gain in less than 3 years and occasional bouts of yeast infections.
Advair
I have been on Advair for about 5-6 years. It is not to be used as a rescue inhaler. I use it once in the morning and just before bed. I can't tell you if, in itself, it helps my O2 levels because I do a nebulizer treatment before bedtime also; and take the Advair afterwards.
I do know that when I've accidently missed my morning dose that I don't do as well during my day.

Well, Iuse advair off and on.....Can't really tell that much of a difference...I guess every patient is different. However, you can get it, or the generic, much cheaper at CanadaDrugs.com.......I use them for spiriva, advair, albuterol, and so forth....
