Welcome.
Thanks for providing the information.
It is steroid based inhaler. In some individuals it increases the chances of sore throat and oral thrush.
I usually advice my patients thoroughly rinsing the mouth and or brushing the teeth after using the inhaled steroid. You can also use mouth wash like Listerine which will be beneficial. Along with this follow the instructions suggested in the earlier post.
