Hello Everyone.

Hope you're all keeping as well as you can.

Wondering if anyone is using  SPIOLTO ? I ve just be given jt in place of Seretide and Atrovent.

Any thoughts. P.S. I'm  a Bronchi person  ☺

Thanks.

Ann

Hi Ann, I don't use Spiolto but I'm sure it's been mentioned recently on the forum. Someone will be able to answer your question. 

Hopefully the change will benefit you 🌸

I have been on Spiolto respimat for 6 weeks. It was prescribed by the consultant. I had previously been on atrovent 4 times a day.  The Spiolto has been a godsend. I take 2 puffs once a day and so far I haven't had to use my rescue inhaler at all and my exercise capacity has increased.  I feel more like my old self.  Due to see the consultant again in May, so I'll see what he  says then.

Thanks Twoose.

Really pleased  it works for  you.  We seem similar.  My  consultant prescribed it and I was using Atrovent four times a day.  I'm only on day three!  I'm keeping fingers crossed.

Take care.
