Always gargle your mouth after usage of pump or inhaler gargling removes the drug deposition on tongue and reduces risk of fungal infection. Candida mouthpaint for a week and oral fluconazole once a week for 4 weeks can help treat fungal infection. Instead of dry powder inhaler, metered dose inhaler which has the mist instead of powder as the drug is there. Which might reduce the drug deposition in tongue but we can't speculate whether it doesn't. There is no cure to copd and asthma. You can control asthma you can control copd symptoms.
