Is anyone using onbrez and does it work for you.

Probably best to stick to one area to discuss it, a lot of people get confused - me especially !

I was asked to trial it. It did not suit and I had a lot of severe headaches and facial pain with it. But we are all different........

auntmary, how soon after starting onbrez did you start getting headaches and facial pain.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

As far as I remember it was within a couple of days, certainly less than a week. The headaches then continued for 3 or 4 days when I stopped using it. I also had pain across my forehead, eyes and nose. Not just discomfort, real pain. I only took it for a short while then had to give up.

I have been using Onbrez for 1 yr. now and have had no side affects, it has helped my breathing a great deal.

Hi Maggie,I have also used it for approx. 1 yr.and very happy with it.The first fortnight was amazing! But it gradually settled into the pattern I was at before.However I am happy with it, having no side effects etc.

I have just finished a 10 day trail period with onbrez. I am breathing easier.

So far so good, so my GP has put me on 300 micrograms daily.

He suggests i take the onbrez first and the spiriva 2 hours later.

The onbrez and spiriva compliment each other.

Hi Keith,glad you are going well on the onbrez.I normally take the spiriva then the onbrez immediately after,may trial giving that 2 hour break,to see if it makes a difference.All the best to you

Just another quick one.

I found taking the onbrez through the spiriva handi haler smoothed out the roughness.

It works for me.
