Not all inhalers suit everyone, it is a matter of trial and error I'm afraid. Go back to your GP and explain that it has made you worse and get it changed, even if it means going back to the original one/s.

I’m on Trelegy with no problem but I changed from Anoro which is the same minus the steroid. What were you on before?
