Preventive Inhalers

[younginmind]

Has anyone been changed from Seebri to Ultibro - as has been suggested to me - would appreciate it if you could tell me if it was better. Thank you in advance for your comments.

Afraid not. From me I have been on seebri for 2 years now have up and down days with it but that could change when I see consultant for my check.up. someone hopefully will be on soon (fingers crossed) to help you

Hi. You didn't say why the change has been suggested. I have been on seebri in the past and never felt any benefit from it. It also started making me cough straight after inhaling it. It was changed to spiriva respimat which I also found unhelpful and then last November my nurse asked me to try braltus which I have found some benefit from. Never had ultibro so can't help with that. But over the years I have had many changes of inhaler on a try it and see basis. We are all different and what suits one won't suit another so try and see is often the only way. If you did that and found the seebri better you can always ask to go back on that. Best wishes.

Its tricky to answer really because what may be brilliant for some is rubbish for others. I absolutely swear by Fostair but some find it unsuitable. Sorry not much help, I've never had the inhalers you mention. It's usually try it and see. P

I have found Inspiolto (Stiolto in some parts of the world) more effective but everyone is different. I have tried some inhalers that others here have found effective, but they didn’t work for me. Ultibro did not work for me but one will only find out what works best for them by trying them.

Good luck

Hi , I have been on Ultibro for 3 years and have found it fantastic.

I was moderate emphysema,unfortunately now moved to server but my ultibro takes me through six hours a day managing my daily tasks.

I can bearly make it to the toilet in the night however once i'v taken my Ultibro I'm like a different person.

You could try it & swap back if it doesn't suit you.

Good luck
