I think it is unlikely to be the Braltus. Perhaps the opening of your airways is allowing you to cough up more to clear the chest? Perhaps the doctor could try you on something else? Then you would know for sure either way. I have been on Braltus for quite a while. It seems to suit me (but we are all different). Keep us posted.

Hi

It certainly MIGHT be. It could, however, be totally unrelated. You need to speak to your GP really.

Do speak to your nurse or gp.

if it is not improving then get yourself some help.

Good wishes that you find the root cause very soon and. Healthy New Year ahead of you.

Not what you're looking for?
