Foracort 400 leads to slight heavy voice
I am using foracort inhaler 400 since april. Doctoe has prescribed this medicine for covid 19 treatment. During covid recovery period, as i felt slight chest tightness, doctor recommended to continue this medicine for two months. However doctor gave gap of two weeks in middle. Since then i felt slight heavy voice. It is not even noticable. Some people told that i havw slight heavy voice. I do not have cough, sore throat or difficulty in swallowing. Sometimes two oe three times i need to clean my voice. Is it normal?
