Well done for stopping smoking. I haven't come across that inhaler but it's often trial and error finding one that helps.

Well done for giving up smoking 👍 It's really tough, I know! You should be very proud of yourself 😀😀 It's always upsetting when an inhaler you've been excited to try doesn't work. Don't be disheartened, you will find one that does :) And give the new ones some time, not sure how much, but your doctor will know! Good luck, you have conquered the first battle 😘😘 xx

Some good advice as ever in reply to devon29.Ealier in the year i turned up for my Pulmonary Rehab introduction course,informed them i had to be rushed to hospital few days ago due angina pain at rest of which i have a history.The briallant staff got in touch with my GP while i waited.On Gp advice it was decided that attending the course should be delayed,the COPD nurse did the usual tests with my inhalers and suggested i be switched over to Trimbow.wasn't getting on with new inhaler so spoke to my GP who said i should give it some more time glad i did get on really well with it now.All the best for your treatment devon29.Keep safe,warm and well God bless Naresh
