What Causes Shaky After Taking Advair For Bad Cough?

I have had a bad cough for quite a while and the doctor gave me Advair because he thought my lungs were probably inflamed from all the coughing. I thought he told me to use it twice a day but now I am feeling shaky. Should I only use it once a day. I do not have asthma or copd

Advair is a combination of Fluticasone, a corticosteroid, is the anti-inflammatory component of the combination, and salmeterol, a long acting beta-adrenoceptor agonist, treats constriction of the airways. Together, they help prevent symptoms of coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. It may sometimes cause shakiness but other Asthma medications are causing it more frequently. I would suggest consulting with your physician before changing the dose, it might make more sense choosing a different drug altogether.
