Hi, I wish I could help but I've never heard of that med. I hope it works well for you though. Good luck with it.

Hello. I don't know your age but my Mum is in her 80s and is taking Braltus and she has had no problem. She takes it alongside another ( short acting ) inhaler. I guess it's a case of 'try it and see'. If it's not right for you , you can always go back to your doctor and ask to try another type of inhaler.

Its the same thing as Spiriva. Slightly different inhaler and its dose is slightly less than Spiriva, mostly used in UK.

Neither should be taken with Combivent Respimat which contains a very similar ingredient and may block each other.

Thank's Guy's
