I'm an asthmatic and usually use Foracort 200 rotacaps during my asthma attacks. But every time after I use it, I feel really weak, like I can't even hold a glass, and I get super sleepy for almost 12 hours. It's quite concerning and I can't figure out why this is happening. Can you help me understand?
