Does Effoxor Have Any Effect On Asthma?
Hi,
I have developed late onset severe brittle asthma at 26 I'm now 29 and my symptoms have rapidly worsened in the last year.
I was hospitalized with pneumonia last month and have been prescribed several courses of antibiotics and steroids. I am taking symbocourt 400, singulair and ventolin. My bloods have returned results of high eosophilia of 26%. My doctor believes I may have clerge strauss syndrome. My main query is that I have been taking effexor for the last four years and see that this may cause these symptoms. Please advise. Many Thanks
