Transfering inhalers

I was using Symbicort 12/400 and I have been transferred to a Relvar Ellipta. Has anyone experience good or bad about the Ellipta?

Hi lucy,

I only had the same question ! I was on clenil and now since three days on this relvar. I still can t breathe fully i feel. How about you ?

Hello Lucy_J,

I'm not on Revlar, but I was on Symbicort and it gave me a number of side-effects, some which I couldn't see, but others could. The GP said "Symbicort is not good for everybody". Were you a long term user of Symbicort and what was the reason for the change? Presuming that your GP/Nurse thought it wasn't right for you.
