Hi, I have been using In Cruse Ellipta and Relvar Ellipta for about 2 years. I find them both good having been on Fostair and Seretide previously. I don't have any side effects and just one puff a day on each.

How are you finding it?

Hi I'm switching back to Spirva Respimat as I find Incruse ellipta too powdery which makes me cough when inhaling it. I'm also on Fostairs and Ventolin.

I have been on this for a few weeks now as well as Forstair. I don't like the powdery feeling at the back if the throat and not sure it has helped at all. Just found out from chest x ray that I have large hiatus hernia. Yet another unexpected problem. Onwards and upwards. 😀

I was prescribed Incruse Elipta 12 months ago. Very powdery, so I hardly used it.

After my wheezing increased and my peak flow was down I tarted back on it taking one morning dose every day along with my usual Symbercort

Oh Boy, what a difference, my wheezing stopped, my peak flow has increased beyond my normal register. I have to say it’s improved my lot. The only down side is the powder I’m having to tolerate that but I can well understand people’s objection to it.

So, I shan’t be giving up on it again in a hurry now I’m aware of the benefits.

I've been using Incruse since last year and I do think it helps me breathe better. Feel I can take deeper breaths. Less tightness. Stopped last month provisionally till I see doctor because wondering if it's connected to a skin reaction. But seems to help breathing.
