Hi everyone, I've been trying trelegy now since November and know for a fact of having only 2 good weeks from starting it that it's not for me. Can anybody tell me how long after last dose of trelegy can I start my new inhaled duaklir genuair, it's not clear when I look it up and my nurse is on annual leave ๐Ÿ™‚

Well I waited and a few puffs of salamol later rang a pharmacist who was lovely and asked how long I had to wait before starting my old meds again and he said straight away. Well I have never breathed so good just waiting and couldn't stop coughing although it was productive. Had a good day and only 3 hrs away from doing my meds again. Happy days, best I've been since end of January. Let's hope it continues. Thanks again for replying, it means alot ๐Ÿ˜‰ so it's goodbye trelegy and back to what I used to be like ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž

I have always resisted change to my meds - Nurse and Practice Pharmasist wanted me of Atrovent and Slamanol and start with Trimbow - I just refused and my GP did not try and force me - Why when drungs are working do they want to swap them.

You did right to refuse Ern and LMEI is right its because they are cheaper and in my opinion not always as good x

I only changed because I felt like I needed just a bit more help. The amount of times I'd been to the doctors and they don't listen. They kept saying just try it for another 2 weeks. Thanks for all your replies, it means a lot ๐Ÿ˜

Thank goodness youโ€™re back to your old self. Iโ€™ve had a change of brand for my nasal spray , same meds but different brand but itโ€™s not as effective. Respiratory nurse asked written to my GP to ask them to change back to my previous one. X
