Does anyone else take Daliresp? Does anyone know how prevalent it is to get lung cancer from it?

I do take Daliresp, I have not heard anything about it causing lung cancer. Why do think it might?

The print out that I got which comes from the company that makes the drug say's nothing about cancer of any kind. It does say it may cause mental health problems including suicidal thoughts and behavior. May cause weight loss, which it did for me in the beginning. My pulmonary doctor told me it's the same thing as Theophyline except this doesn't effect the heart. I will have to ask the pharmacy next time I go in. Thanks for bring this to my attention. I can you it has been working good for me.
