I was for 6 months and coughed constantly during that time until we realised it had 35mcg of lactose in it and I was dairy intolerant. Have now swapped to Fostair MDI and have no more problems.

I changed to this about 3 months ago & it seems to be helping.

Fingers crossed it continues x

I have been on it for 2 years now. I find it really good.

When I was admitted to hospital 5 weeks ago I was put on Fostair, then my Asthma nurse put me on the Nexthaler, the following week she changed it to Relvar Ellipta!

I'm not sure about it yet, as I still have chest tightness, and suffering from a very dry mouth as well as the dreaded black tongue!

Hi, I tried Relvar Ellipse a couple of years ago and, while it was functionally very easy to use, I just could not stop shaking. It was so bad that I couldn't even hold a pen and write. After 2 weeks the shaking had not lessened, so I went back on seretide.

I hope that you find the Relvar Ellipse inhaler more beneficial than I did, and that you get some relief from your symptoms.
