I have heard that there will soon be a generic version of Advair. How soon?
I have been on Advair since this combination medication was first available. I have heard that there will soon be a generic version of "Advair" and would like to know how much longer the wait will be. I credit Advair with contoling my asthma enough that I seldom ever need my rescue inhaler. I am on Medicare and Advair is very expensive. Because I must take other non generic medications for other problems, I reach the "gap" of Medicare very quickly, so a generic version of Advair would be would be most helpful.
I have heard similar rumors, but I have also not heard any credible evidence that the rumors are true. However, at the present time there is no Generic Advair available. As soon as one is available I'm sure we will report this news here on this site. In the meantime, there was a similar question asked here if you care to read more.

There is a generic form of Advair availible in India and other countries that do not have different patent laws than the U.S. The FDA allows for individuals to purchase 90 day supplies of medications at a time from overseas. You can look into this at www.progressiverx.com or at www.pharmacychecker.com. Pharmacychecker.com is an oline pharmacy watchdog group that certifies the safety and reliability of drugs from overseas. Best of luck.
