budesonide

Is it normal for symptoms to come roaring back within 24-48 hours of not having taken any budesonide? I'm not always diligent about getting it refilled in time. This makes me wonder if budesonide is just barely keeping up with the inflammation. But, I don't know.

Hi, I would mention it to your doctor as you may be right that it is just barely keeping up or it may be that it does not persist in your system longer than that 24-48 hours.
