Effectiveness

How Asmanex Twisthaler Affects PatientsMometasone is a type of synthetic steroid. It has a stronger effect on the body's glucocorticoid receptors than other similar drugs, and it is more selective in its action on the body's mineralocorticoid receptors. Once it is taken, mometasone furoate moves through the cells and activates pathways that decrease inflammation.
How Asmanex Twisthaler works in the bodyMometasone helps to reduce asthma symptoms by limiting the activity of mast cells, eosinophils, basophils, and lymphocytes. It also works to reduce the effects of histamine, leukotrienes, and cytokines. This is done by the drug binding to a glucocorticoid receptor in the cell. This binding causes the receptor to move to the nucleus of the cell, where it then dimerizes and binds to a DNA sequence called the glucocorticoid response element. The glucocorticoid response element helps to reduce inflammation by blocking certain transcription factors.

Asmanex Twisthaler Toxicity & Overdose RiskTaking too much of a mometasone furoate inhaler can cause excessive amounts of cortisol and adrenal gland suppression. Animal studies have shown that taking a high enough dose of the drug may cause fetal harm, so pregnant patients should carefully weigh the risks and benefits. The drug may be present in breast milk, so caution should be used when administering to nursing mothers. Kids may experience slower growth and should take the lowest effective dose for the inhaler. Elderly patients may be more sensitive to the drug, and those with moderate to severe liver problems should be cautious when taking the medication. It's unknown how the drug affects renal impairment

Asmanex Twisthaler Reviews: What are patients saying about Asmanex Twisthaler?

5Patient Review

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
Overall, this treatment was effective in reducing my asthma symptoms and I didn't have to use my emergency inhaler as much. However, there were some side effects that came along with it for me, including insomnia, joint pain, and irritability. Cannabis is a better option for me since it doesn't have the same side effects.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
I found that the medication didn't always work by itself, so I started to research other methods. I heard that certain vegetables could help if eaten regularly, so I started drinking smoothies with veggies 2-3 times a week. This method almost completely stopped my attacks.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Controller Medication for Asthma
I refused to take this medication 2 years ago because I don't suffer from asthma and I exercise 4 times a week. But pneumologist insists I could be breathing better based on my test results. After less than 1 week of taking this poison, I started feeling chest tightness, overall weakness, nausea and insomnia. So I took this so-called medecine and threw in the trash. Thanks for everything doc.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Controller Medication for Asthma
I've had asthma since I was a kid, and nothing has ever worked to control it— until now. After a month of taking Asmanex, my asthma is gone. It's worth it to have to take the medication every day in order to get some relief.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
There have been several occasions where the dose marker on my inhaler was off, making it difficult to tell if I was actually receiving any medication. I'm currently looking for a way to document and report this issue.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
I developed a severe itch on my scalp and ears while taking this medication. The itching and rash on my legs and feet worsened even after I stopped taking it. I didn't experience any relief until I took a steroid dose pak.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
I was on this medication for a while and it gave me some serious heartburn. I also started to become really paranoid, which is not like me at all. Additionally, I noticed that my short-term memory was getting worse and worse. Once I stopped taking the asmanex, though, my short-term memory came back within just a couple of weeks.

2/8/2022
Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
I had a lot of trouble breathing at night last year to the point where I would wake up gasping for air. My doctor prescribed an emergency inhaler, but it didn't do anything. eventually, they put me on Twisthaler. It was confusing to use at first, but it worked. However, my nasal passageway still gets restricted from the same allergy that affects my lungs, so I have to use a nasal spray in addition to the Twisthaler or I'll still have trouble breathing at night.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
I found that my lungs functioned better while on the medication, but I also started getting nauseous multiple times a day. I haven't taken it regularly because of this side effect, and whenever I do start taking it again, the nausea returns quickly.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
Even after getting used to the new inhalation steps, I didn't see as much improvement as I did with other drugs. The price is still outrageous, but it has been effective in reducing the frequency and severity of my asthma attacks.

Asmanex Twisthaler for Asthma
I've been taking this for years and it's the only one that works for me. I tried switching to Singulair a few years ago because of insurance/price, but I got pneumonia within a couple weeks and had to switch back immediately.

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment for Asthma

18 - 60
All Sexes
Mayfield Heights, OH
Asthma is a common respiratory condition that can be difficult to control despite the use of medications such as inhalers, oral steroids or even injectable medications. Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is a hands-on technique used to improve the chest structure and function and may help in improving breathing. Previous research showed that OMT in asthma patients, can improve the movement of the ribs and improve the "peak flow" which is the maximum rate at which a person can exhale air after taking a deep breath. However, no studies have evaluated the impact of OMT on lung inflammation. This single-site research study at University Hospitals aims to evaluate whether Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) can reduce lung inflammation and improve breathing and lung function in adult patients with asthma. The lung function will be evaluated by Spirometry which is a test that measures how much air you can breathe in and out of your lungs, as well as how quickly and easily you can exhale air. The lung inflammation will be measured using a device that can detect how much you are breathing out Nitric Oxide which is a gas produced by inflamed cells in the lungs, this test is called: Fractional exhaled Nitric Oxide or FeNO. Approximately 100 participants will be enrolled.

Inhaled Corticosteroids + Azithromycin for Asthma

13 - 75
All Sexes
Aurora, CO
While asthma therapy is becoming more individualized based on asthma phenotypes, more research is needed to tailor newer therapies to individuals. Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) medications are the foundation of care for all individuals with persistent asthma. But ICS use is not without possible long term side effects. This study will compare two currently available approaches to reduce AEX in primary care patients: (1) use of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) as part of rescue therapy, also known as MART (Maintenance And Reliever Therapy) or PARTICS (Patient Activated Reliever Trigger Inhaled Corticosteriods) therapy - either of these therapies will be called Rescue-Inhaled Corticosteroids or R-ICS pronounced "Ricks," and (2) use of azithromycin (AZ) as a preventive therapy. These treatments will be studied both individually and in combination.

Pharmacy Support System for Asthma

Any Age
All Sexes
Ajax, Canada
The goal of this study is to assess the effect of an electronic asthma management system in pharmacies (eAMS-Pharm) on asthma control assessment, asthma medication adjustment, asthma action plan delivery, and prompting for specialist referral in severe asthma. The study assesses the differences on pharmacy processes (affecting both the pharmacy team and patients) and pharmacy-delivered care using an interrupted time-series analysis (six-months before vs. six-months after the introduction of eAMS-Pharm in study pharmacy sites). The eAMS-Pharm uses patient data (asthma control, asthma flare-up risk, and current medications) to provide clinical decision support to pharmacists, empowering them to bridge existing gaps between guideline-recommended asthma care and patient care received.

PF-07275315 for Asthma

18 - 70
All Sexes
Mobile, AL
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called PF-07275315) for the potential treatment of moderate-to-severe asthma. Asthma is a condition that makes it challenging to breathe, which negatively impacts the quality of life and functioning of people who are affected. This study is seeking participants who: * Are 18 to 70 years old * Have had moderate-to-severe asthma for at least 12 months that is not well controlled * Have been taking their regular maintenance treatment(s) for asthma over the last 12 months All participants will receive PF-07275315 or a placebo. A placebo does not have any medicine in it but looks just like the medicine being studied. PF-07275315 or placebo will be given as multiple shots in the clinic over the course of 12 weeks. We will compare the experiences of people receiving PF-07275315 to those of the people who do not. This will help us determine if PF-07275315 is safe and effective. Participants will be involved in this study for about 9.5 months. During this time, they will have 10 visits at the study clinic.

Corticosteroids for Asthma

18+
All Sexes
Hamilton, Canada
Most individuals with asthma can effectively manage their symptoms and maintain normal lung function using inhaled medications, unfortunately, there is a subset of asthma sufferers whose symptoms, lung function, and risk of asthma attacks remain unimproved despite conventional inhaled medications. There could be several reasons for this. One possibility is that inhaled medications fail to reach the intended areas within the lungs, due to structural abnormalities within the airways themselves. Much like road conditions or closures can impede the speed and efficiency of vehicle travel, factors such as airway narrowing or mucus blockages, which are common in asthma, can obstruct the passage of inhaled medications through the airways. Our team has now optimized advanced medical imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), required to investigate this. This study will use these imaging methods to visually assess and measure individual patients' airways and determine whether abnormal airway structures impact how well they respond to inhaled and orally delivered medications. We anticipate finding that abnormal airway structures make inhaled medications less effective, but that they do not affect the response to oral medications.
