    You need to speak to your doctor or pharmacist right away. It may the combination of prescriptions you take. DO NOT WASTE TIME.

    If you are noticing ANY side effects like this after starting a new medication, contact your doctor immediately, especially if you have asthma.

    Side effects are different for everyone. I’ve never heard of Seasonale giving asthma attacks, but you may have an allergic reaction to the medication. Stop taking the pill immediately and call your doctor. You and her/him can go over what has happened and decide what to do next.

    You’re better safe than sorry. The medication may have nothing to do with your problems, but you don’t want to risk something awful happening to you.

    Take care.
