Hi,I had gone through your query and understand your concern. If I were in your situation(not as a medical graduate),I might have done the same. Being a graduate in modern medicine (allopathic),it is tough to comment on Homeopathy. But I can give you a clarification about why you should rely on modern medicine for the proper treatment of asthma.Modern medicine has improved to such level that one can have good asthma control if he /she follows physician s/specialist advice properly and follow up at regular interval.Even he/she may remain symptoms free without medicine. Asthelin inhaler relieves your acute attack where as Forocort(steroid preparation) 200 inhaler prevents as well as control further attack of asthma.Since you took forocort via inhalation, only a very small amount of drug (less than 1 mg) enters into your body.So the change of developing adverse effects like weight gain,gastric ulcer pain etc are very unlikely.You might have other associated causes for weight gain like food habit,sedentary work etc. Moreover,steroid is sometimes used as pain reliever. So my suggestion is : consult with a respiratory medicine specialist to confirm the step of asthma control and get treated accordingly. Hope this helps you.Now the decision is your. Wish you good health.
