After taking Symbicort it is very important to rinse your mouth with water and spit. Sounds like what you have is called "thrush". A simple cure is to rinse your mouth and spit after each usage. Symbicort is a steriod, that is what can cause the thrush. Just as a rule of thumb, just remember to rinse after EVERY inhaler that you take, that way you don't have to remember which ones you have to rinse after. This should solve your problem. Hope this helps.
