Does QVAR Inhaler Cause Dizziness And Nausea?

Does QVAR Inhaler (beclomethasone dipropionate) have dizziness and nausea as a side effect? I am 71 years old, female, have had asthma since age 50, have used pulmicourt for 20 years, symbocourt for half a year, and QVR for three days. Asthma has not been well-managed and have asthma this week twice already.
