New treatment.

12 Replies

I have just been prescribed a new treatment from hospital clinic called incruse Ellipta, been having problems with wheezing tight chest and a lot of mucus. Just wondered if anyone has had this treatment and if it helped. Feeling a bit nervous using it with all the other medication I take. Majt.

Hi Majt,

I have emphysema and am 66 years young.

Have been on it for 9 months since pneumonia and week in hospital at beginning of February.

I found it noticeably better than my previous meds and it hasn't caused me any problems so far.

When first taking it I had a hoarse voice for a couple of weeks, the grandchildren thought this was hilarious, then voice returned to normal, everything fine since.

Give it a month or two to get used to it and then decide for yourself, hope this is of help to you.

better known as aclidinium bromide I have been on this the last 3-4 years with great success hope it works well with you. Just do not forget to rinse and gargle after use to keep the thrush away.
