For about a month I have been taking atrovent and budesonide pierced by a pulmunologist. I follow the rule to rinse my mouth after taking the drug. However, for almost 2-3 days from the beginning of using the drug I still feel burning throat and dryness - I do not have symptoms of infection. Is this drug god be the cause of this condition. Could the drugs interact and affect the throat and esophagus?

No, this is not a reason to stop treatment. This is an impulse to pay more attention to hygiene. Remember to rinse your mouth with water whenever you have finished inhaling. It is also worth paying attention to the nebulizer used. Viruses and bacteria leaking along with saliva and nasal discharge can accumulate in its chamber, and subsequent inhalation can lead to their reabsorption into the respiratory system. Therefore, the inhaler should be thoroughly washed and preferably disinfected.
Are the symptoms I have been asking for an indication to stop using budesonide and atrovent?

Dry throat and burning sensation may be an adverse reaction to taking inhaled steroid drugs including budesonide. In addition to oral hygiene, care should be taken to moisturize the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat. You can use, for example, lozenges, sprays or syrup based on Icelandic lichen or inhalations from saline solution (e.g. with the addition of hyaluronic acid). e.g. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/29892/fiorda-o-smaku-czarnej-porzeczki-pastylki-lamelki-zelki/apteka-internetowa?pvid=181364 https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/76618/syrop-islandzki-syrop/apteka-internetowa?pvid=182732 https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/89172/nebu-dose-hialuronic-sol-fizjologiczna-z-kwasem-hialuronowym-plyn/apteka-internetowa?pvid=212707 If, despite the use of moisturizers, the symptoms do not go away, you should consult a doctor.
