What can be the reason for headaches when taking Symbicort Turbohaler?

Can headache as an undesirable symptom occur after limiting the dosage of the drug? Previously, I took a symbicort turbuhaler 320 2 times a day, or even 2 inhalations 2 times a day with deterioration and it was all ok, however, a week ago I was supposed to go for 1 inhalation once a day and since then my head hurts every day. Is it possible that dose reduction is the reason?

Headaches have been reported as a symptom of taking more Symbicort Turbohaler than you should. They are also one of the common side effects of the drug: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/76347/symbicort-turbuhaler-320-mcg-9-mcg-proszek-do-inhalacji/ulotka/84155 The risk of side effects of the drug increases with the time of use of the preparation, as well as with an increase in the dose of the drug. If you have had headaches after reducing the dose of the preparation, I encourage you to consult your doctor. The doctor, based on your medical history, will recommend further therapeutic treatment. I encourage you to read the additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-bac-sie-dzialan-niepozadanych-lekow https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-sterydy-sa-bezpieczne https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-zyc-aktywnie-z-astma
