It always takes a time for any new medication to start working, I would give it at least 3 weeks before getting a medical opinion

I haven't had trimbow but I have fostair which, when I was first prescribed it took about 4 weeks for me to feel the full benefit of it although I was aware of a gradual improvement after the first week. If you find that it doesn't help after a month (or of course if you have any adverse effects) do let your doctor or nurse know but I hope that it helps you.
