Default mrsD -- BCQ?? Anti-Inflammatory??

Hi mrsD,
My son-in-law runs a lab at a cancer hospital and he was telling me about BCQ, which is used as an anti-inflammatory. His idea was that it might help with my "small airway" problems.

I was just put on Alvesco (ciclesonide) Inhalation Aerosol. My body is reacting to it like it does to Prednisone. Moon face, weight gain, etc. That said, I am breathing better on it than I did with Advair Diskus or QVAR.

I was wondering if you have any knowledge, or opinions concerning this BCQ? I "googled" it and found it availble OTC in many places.

Thanks, Dave
