puffy face

Has anyone noticed a "moon" face from using advair and flonase? My daughter is starting to get that steroid look after using both drugs for a few months.

I never heard of anyone having the moon face from Advair or Flonase. I have been on both for a few years. My understanding is the face came from oral steroids, but someone else might have more knowledge since I am fairly new to steroids in general.

I, too, have been on both drugs for about two years now, along with other steroids when I get ill, and I've never had a problem. I don't know too much about them myself, so certainly consult your doctor. Sorry I can't be of more help than that.

Been using steroids (inhalers) x10 years and have never gotten the moon face. Do get it temporarily whenever on Prednisone though.
