A member asked:
The doctors ordered pulimcort200mcg instead of flovent125mcg. is it o.k for my 10 year old who has eosonphillic esophagitis or should i get itchanged?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's OK: They are both steroids and the doses are comparable, so i would not fret getting one over the other. The Pulmicort should work fine if the Flovent was helping.
