I have been using Anoro Ellipta for about a Year now. Once in the AM. However, as the day goes on, especially in the evening. My cough can be quite violent in nature. It can be triggered from: a sip of water, a drink of liquid ( I do not drink alcohol) except on rare occasions.
I do have Pro-Air inhaler and have used it when I think of it.
Is that a good solution or should I search, via my doctor for another solution if any?
I have been using both Anora and Pro Air. My cough has been cured by reducing my liquid intake which caused phlem and a trickle in my throat. It works for me but don"t try it without talking to your… read more
For those who use rescue inhalers (i.e. Respimat, ProAir, Ventolin...how often do you use and how does it help you?
I had been on Spiriva for 11 years, just got switched to Anora. Taken it two days now and so far I like it a lot!
Can you give me a name of an inhaler that you use and like, I have to get another one from my doctor. I tried spiriva respimat, but it was top strong and it made me cough, I also tried advair, but that made my throat sore and my voice hoarse, so can someone tell me about the inhaler that they use....Thanks
I use trelegy. It seems to work but 1st fill to meet deductible is over $500!! Then it is 44$ a month. Yikes!

My question comes from ending up in the hospital several times recently. A little background. I was diagnosed with emphysema two years ago....doctor initially put me on Symbicort and Spiriva......took the Symbicort only and gained a whole lot of weight really fast and eventually started breaking out in hives from it along with… read more
Is anyone on Flovent inhaler or Anoro? Flovent is nothing but a steriod. I figure since my doctor wont put me on steriods because of the side effects I thought I would try this. It doesnt have as many side effects. :-) its suppose to really help you breathe better. Anoro is a inhaler with a combition of 2 newer COPD medications, vitanterol and umeclidinam. My breathers are just not working for me. Oh yea, what is the name of your resue breather?
It is indeed sad not to have heard from @A MyCOPDTeam Member in such a long time ? I agree I shall miss her ! RIP !
To all of u Im glad the stuf is workig on you Its to expensive so let you go Have a nice day God bless
I read where a few members say nebulizer treatments have made their COPD worse.
Have others had a problem with treatments ? I , myself, have not .
I would like to hear from members who have had Neb treatments worsen their COPD.
Breathe easy and rest if needed .
COPD gets worse, so how anyone can say its the nebulizer I dont understand. that
