Spiriva
As part of my COPD med's, I take
Spiriva
daily at lunch times. Generally, I feel more breathless after taking it than without it. I guess that in itself that doesn't mean it isn't helping in the long term but how can I tell? I'm all for stopping an ineffectual med so any advice on how to proceed?

I am new here, as my 92 year old fathers's caregiver
The doctor gave him
Spiriva
and the mucus disappeared. My question is, if the mucus returns, what is the best technique to clear his throat? We see the pulminary doctor in late February, but there must be something he can do. Thank you all in advance for reading!

Using inhalers when they cause oral thrush
I am supposed to use ventolin,
spiriva
and secretive but after using for a few days develop really bad thrush making it impossible to eat or drink. The only relief is when I use Daktarin for it but I am on warfarin and this rais s my blood levels so high the Dr doesn't like me using it.

Help please
I am taking montelukast,
Spiriva
and Symbicort smart but the symptoms don't seem to be relieving. Prior to this I had no problems at all with my chest but six years ago I got a chest infection which went on to pneumonia and then pleurisy and that seems to have been what has triggered everything.

Spiriva
Just been to the hospital for my monthly xolair injections and my asthma nurse is not happy with my breathing or the amount of ventolin I'm using so he has prescribed me
spiriva
as well as 200/6 fostair, I also take 5mg of Prednisolone daily. Anyone else had good results on
spiriva
?

and he said from the results we'll know whether to commence
Spiriva
or try something else. He wants to see me again in six weeks. My asthma's been controllable for the last couple of weeks but now that I'm home for Christmas it's getting worse again.

I went to a pulmonary specialist , who put me on the
Spiriva
handi-haler. I also use Xoponex inhaler 4x daily, as needed. I find that I'm very fatigued. I used to exercise & was very active. I hope to get back to that soon.

He suggested she try the drug
Spiriva
and he told her she never should have been put on Advair in the first place. With
Spiriva
, her legs began to ache so badly that she could no longer bend down without having help to get back up.

Spiriva
Serevent Ventolin Qvar He said he would take me off
spiriva

Reflux and asthma?
Since then I have been on Fostair,
Spiriva
and Salbutamol. I have to take montelucast from the start. In addition I have a nasal spray and cetirizine. I also take Omeprazole and Peptac acid. Oh yes ... and I take theiCal-D3. Which to be honest, none have made a great deal difference.
