Side Effects
Candidiasis of the throat and mouth may develop in some patients but this can be treated without discontinuation of Beclomethasone therapy. - Hoarseness or throat irritation may also occur. - As with other inhaled therapy, paradoxical bronchospasm with wheezing may occur immediately after dosing.

These may include adrenal suppression, growth retardation in children and adolescents, decrease in bone mineral density, cataract and glaucoma. - Hypersensitivity reactions including rashes, urticaria, pruritus and erythema and edema of the eye, face, lips and throat (angioedema) have been reported. - Psychiatric disorders including psychomotor hyperactivity, sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, aggression and behavioral changes (predominantly in children).
