So a few years back, a long time before being diagnosed as diabetic, my asthma nurse put me on Clenil Modulite which is a preventer (it comes in a brown inhaler). Well after a month of taking it I had put on almost a stone in weight and stopped taking it which didn't go down well as was told it doesn't cause weight gain. Jump forwards a few years, having recently been diagnosed as diabetic type limbo, as in they can't confirm which type I am yet, and told to lose weight my asthma nurse, who also happens to be the diabetes nurse at my GPs, wanted me to go on Clenil Modulite again. Well I agreed and after a month of taking 2 doses morning and night guess what my weight is creeping up and this is with following a low cal and carb diet whilst exercising more.
Now maybe it is just me, maybe the diet and exercise plan has stopped working for me already but I am leaning more towards this Clenil Modulite being the cause of my weight slowly creeping back up. So are there any other asthmatic diabetics on here who have had the same issues with their medication?
