I have an 11 year old son. Very mild mannered until this week. Emotional outbursts - and agressive out of control behavior toward me. Never had a problem. No social issues/good student. Coincidentally, started Advair 2 + weeks ago at 250 dose. He weighs 80 lbs. History of depression on my side of the family. Can the advair be the cause of the extreme change in personality?. No other clues. Advair prescribed for very mild asthma - previously used albuterol inhalers max 1-2x daily during the fall for asthma triggered by seasonal allergies. Prescribing md was covering for regular pediatrician. Can there be these psych side effects on this dose?
