If anyone has taken Advair and had an increase in weight gain of more than fifteen pounds, please contact me at buzbait@up-link.net.

Thanks

I have never heard of weight gain associated with Advair. If your on other medications they could be causing the weight gain also. I would discuss this issue with your doctor that prescribed Advair. I have been using Advair for years. Good Luck! Best Wishes! :-)

Advair is a corticosteroid and not the type which most people associate with steroids. Advair couldn't cause the weight gain, but have you had your thyroid checked lately? An imbalance in your thyroid can cause weight gain.

Hope you feel better soon.
