Hi I've been on revlar ellipta for a few months now. I think it is working well for me and my asthma is a bit better controlled. Also I feel less shaky after taking it than I did on symbicort.

My only thing I don't like about it is I can't double up the dose when I'm having lots of symptoms.

In the main tho I like it. Hope it works well for you,

Hi, I've been on Relvar Ellipta for nearly 4wks now and have found it has really helped my asthma, especially as my asthma has not been controlled well recently. I like the fact that I only need to take it once every 24hrs (was a bit sceptical at first about this) and I haven't had to use my blue inhaler as yet.

Hope it also works well for you.

I was switched up to this from seretide. My asthma hasn't been as well controlled since just before the switch but the consultant assures me it's the best inhaler and that my symptoms would be worse back on the seretide.
