Are there any asthma medications a diabetic person shouldn’t take?

Out of this list: Singulair, Symbicort, Ventilin.
Thanks!
I’m not diabetic, but i wondered.
Hey mango, I checked all the drugs for asthma and found none you shouldn’t take. One drug that I seen that was under the microscope was Singulair. Not for diabetes but for causing suicide.Most have a lot of warnings: tell you doctor if you take this and that. But none that were counter indicated.

It really depends on the medications the diabetic person is taking for control of their condition. The doctor and the pharmacist will both weigh in on the combination of meds as to what might react adversly with the diabetes meds.
Anything with cortizone will cause higher glucose readings so more diabetes control meds will be needed.
I take insulin, metformin and combivent along with some meds to prevent hypertension.
