The active ingredients in Stalpex, like all medications, come with some risk of side effects. Salmeterol can cause a tremor, heart palpitations, or cause headaches, for example. But these effects are temporary and tend to get better as you keep using Stalpex.
If you’re taking a high dose of fluticasone for long periods of time, there is a small risk of side effects. These include an increased risk of adrenal insufficiency (although this risk is still lower than with the use of oral corticosteroid tablets),[popover id=ref9] and Cushing’s syndrome.[popover id=ref10] Speak to your clinician if you’re worried about side effects on Stalpex.
