Now medication, inhalers and nasal sprays are the bomb! Maybe not the nasal spray but the inhaler is a life saver! However the first thing you should know about these medications is that they mask your asthma and not treat the cure, therefore you will probably suffer with asthma for the rest of your life. The inhalers and nasal sprays that contain steroids are well known to cause psychiatric side effects such as depression, mood swings, aggression, irritability and insomnia. These steroids are not anabolic steroids, these steroids are called "corticosteroids".

Examples of steroid asthma inhalers are Pulmicort, Flovent and AdvAir. Examples of steroid nasal sprays are Nasonex, Nasacort, Rhinocort and Flonase. Don't natural cures for asthma sound better now? But wait! There's more!

Now if you take oral steroid drugs such as prednisone then you have a chance to develop steroid psychosis. People with this lose contact with reality and can appear to be crazy or insane! Symptoms of this can involve incoherent babbling to psychotic delusions and hallucinations. Don't worry! This is reversible with anti psychotic drugs but could take weeks and months! And guess what? In the end you still have asthma! People can also develop steroid psychosis from inhalers and nasal spray but it is much more rare (1 in 10,000).
