i take Anoro, but don’t remember it making me more breathless at first. Maybe speak to your GP, and get advice. Anoro is a really good preventer, but we are all different and what suits one may not suit another. Hope you get it sorted.

I believe it can take a few weeks to take effect, but I agree with Collie4, if it's making you more breathless contact your GP.

I stopped taking Anora as it affected my stomach badly, but it was quite good on the breathlessness - but we are all different.

Have you had your inhaler techniques checked - mine was done pre-covid and was not very good - I use a spacer now - which definitely helps - I was only getting half doses beforehand.

hi Anng 18 don’t think you can tell with 1 day how an inhaler will work usually takes some time to get used to that’s what my respitory nurse has told me I am on trimbow too gives me thrush was on anora but a while ago can’t remember why I changed I Olso use a spacer which I find helps if your not happy you need to speak to your doctor or respiratory nurse there are different inhalers to try see which one is best for you so hope you find some help there take care.

I like Anora but everyone is different. It doesn’t have steroid in it which for me is a positive.
