I have been on most inhalers available. I used to have a pulmonary nurse, who ensured my treatment wasw up to date. She retired due ot old age. Before she finished, she put me on ANORO Ellipta, which I use once a day, and QVAR, which I use morning and evening. Had no probelms with either, and there are no side affects such as I had with Symbicort.

Hi after reading your post I asked my doctor about that inhaler you mentioned trimbow and she was completely puzzled and said she'd never heard of it I'm finding my neighbours are not working I'm on tiotropium seretide and save you tomorrow is there any other name with the trimbow so that I can ask my doctor again just in case I'm getting it wrong I really hope it's still working well for you because I completely understand what it's like when they're not working all the very best and please excuse my grandma I am using all day texting lol
