Inhaled Corticosteroids - side effects

Tinster4 posted:

Inhaled Corticosteroids suck calcium out of our bodies- known fact.
Did everyone know that 99% of the body's calcium is found in the teeth and NOT in the bones. Long term use of inhaled corticosteroids without calcium suppliments ruins teeth and lowers bone density.

What have other folks experienced with long term use of inhaled corticosteroids?

Be Blessed,

dale
