Experiences with

Daliresp

Has anyone got some pros or cons on thaking DALIRESP (roflumilast)? Just started the low dose....

Was on daliresp for five days. Had to discontinue taking it as psychiatric symptoms were intolerable. Hope another medicine is available. Heard of Symbicort, is this helpful to anyone? I have stage 3 C.O.P.D. Thanks

I was just started on daliresp for severe C.O.P.D. I am having terrible insomnia. Anyone else having same problem? Does any medicine help with insomnia? Thanks , Sam

I do take Daliresp which is prescribed and NAC which isn't and magnisium and melatonin which helps me sleep like a baby.16 months ago the hospital had given up on me and wanted me to go on hospice I could hardly get out of bed because of all the morphine they were giving me.

I went from 189 pounds to 138 that was due to a medication they put me on called Daliresp. Guess I am just anticipating more problems then I can deal with I try to go for a walk everyday and do drink protein drinks.

Ask your medics for DALIRESP!

I have been prescribed Daliresp. Having read all side effects I am concerned. Anyone provide your experience with this drug?

Hi, Milton I have been on Daliresp for over a year and have only experienced drowsiness as a side effect. As a result, I have moved that pill to taking it at bedtime. It has improved my breathing by making me more able to clear my lungs of excessive mucus. I hope this helps you. Derstein1020

Does anyone in this group use Daliresp (or roflumilast)? If so, what side effects have you experienced and do you feel it has helped ward off flare-ups? Just prescribed this and concerned about the long list of side effects, even tho I know that all possibilities, even remote, are listed.

My husband saw a new specialist and he recommended Z-tab three days a week Daliresp and 2 new medicines for the nebulizer twice a day. brovana and budesonide As a help in not getting flares which my husband has been getting a lot of and they last longer each time. Any one have any luck with them?

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

Has anyone gotten good results using Daliresp my doctor prescribed for the shortness of breath But i am afraid of Side affects I too have normal sats but short of breath Hate using nebuliser especially in the evening keeps me up thank you

I've been reading your posts about this and I used to have to go to the hospital every time I had a flare up + pulm. rehab, steroids,antibiotics. my pulm.dr. put me on daliresp and I have'nt had a flare up in 2 years.I take other breathing meds by neb.

Some friends of mine in the USA with COPD use a drug called daliresp - (roflumilast) they reckon its the best thing ever as it decreases the number of exacerbations making them feel better. The only problem is the side effects are, in my opinion, really bad. Has anyone else heard of this ?
