That stuff is a cortisone derivative. Cortisone derivatives are known to have these side effects (increased hunger & weight gain) on many many people, but usually not when it is used locally (my sister takes nasal cortisone every summer for her allergies and does not have these symptoms). I guess if you use it in your lungs it can have the systemic effects.
Do you take this for asthma ? If so consult your doctor, there are other options for asthma control. Cortisone is not meant for regular long term use. And if you use this more than 3 times a week (barring in prevention for intense exercise), your asthma is not properly controlled.
