Does flovent cause weight gain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, it should not: Flovent is an inhaled steroid that helps the lungs get well (from problems such as asthma). It should not cause weight gain. If there is noticeable weight gain, the primary care doctor can evaluate to look for other reasons for gaining the weight.
