There's a difference between a Trilogy machine and Trelegy the medication. The question that was asked was in regard to Trilogy, the machine.

The Trilogy is at this point the best alternative in non-invasive ventilators. They are capable of being calibrated much more closely than bi-paps and can be used during the day as well as at night. I know a number of people who use them and they really make a difference in reducing the CO2. Your Mom is getting the best there is.

Yes I have been using & it’s the best inhaler that I have had to date...

The Trilogy machine is the next generation of the Bi-Pap, which is often prescribed for people who have difficulty ridding themselves of the CO2 that can build up over time. It's not a medication, and is often prescribed as the result of a sleep study or when it is determined that the person has a build-up of CO2 that isn't going away with the usual treatments.
