A member asked:
Can q-var inhaler for asthma cause a cough or slight sore throat? i am taking 80mg 2puffs twice a day.

Mgt: It may cause throat irritation. Asthma is associated with a dry cough or a cough with scant mucus production. I would suggest rinsing your mouth after using QVAR. A virtual appt is available to review your asthma triggers and asthma plan.
