After a lobectomy for lung cancer my doctor has changed my inhalers to Trimbow. I am not doing very well on it so far but I have only been taking it for one week. Any helpful advice re Trimbow

I’ve been using trimbow for 8 months and don’t see any difference after using serotide

In fact I aim to ask my doctor for anything that is better than trimbow I hope it works for you though we are all different

Thank you. I was on Symbicort and Spiriva for a long time - I have other lung problems like fibrosis and bronchiectasis so I don't know why they changed it. I felt OK with them but am feeling a little shaky plus headaches since starting the Trimbow.

I was changed to Trimbow just over a week ago. Feel I'm even more breathless at the moment but nurse did say that it will take a few weeks to kick in so I'm trying to persevere.

Trimbow is a oreventor and takes weeks to start working. Give it a chance it's one of the best.
