[quote=Anonymous]I agree that behavioral side effects are much more common from albuterol and other bronchodilators, and from oral steroids than they are from inhaled steroids. I'd bet that neither the kid who reacted to Advair (which contains both a steroid and a bronchodilator) or the pulmicort/albuterol mix was reacting to the steroid. If your kid is only on the inhaled steroid, and you're seeing the side effect of lack of sleep, I'd check with your pulmo/allergist. The other thing to think about is whether he's having more energy because he's feeling better, and has more energy. I know my kid, presteroids, slept a lot. If you watched how much he used his chest and stomach muscles to breathe it wasn't really surprising that he got tired. [/quote]
