Is Qvar a steroid inhaler?
Yes, Qvar contains a medicine called beclometasone dipropionate, which is a type of corticosteroid.
What is the difference between Qvar autohaler vs aerosol?
An autohaler is a type of Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) device that is activated by breathing and does not require hand-to-breathe coordination to correctly receive the dose, unlike regular aerosol inhalers. Autohalers are useful for those who may have trouble with the timing of an aerosol inhaler.
How long does it take for Qvar to kick in/begin working?
An inhaler that contains beclometasone won't begin to work straight away. These inhalers will normally improve breathing and reduce wheeziness between 3-7 days of daily use.
Does Qvar cause weight gain?
No, weight gain is not a listed side effect of using a Qvar aerosol inhaler or autohaler.
