I Have Numerous Asthma Bronchitis Exacerbations Every Winter That Are Getting Worse!

Updated

Doctor puts me on cortisone antibiotics & med Neb treatments. This last flair was bad. Cortisone didn't work. He gave me Daliresp and I'm on day 4 & starting to starting to breath better. I read about side effects which is concerning. But so far the aches in my low back and nausea are manageable with tylenol and zantac. I'm greatful not to wheeze and am able to breath again. I'm still recovering. But I'm hopeful this drug and I get along! It seems every year the asthma/bronchitis flair ups got worse! Hoping this turns me around and I get my life back! My ins. Requires prior author. So I hope it goes through. Looks like I'll be on it a while! Anything to stop the flair ups! I hope I don't develops any more side effects. Weight loss would be welcome though.

Hello, Patty! How are you doing? I'm very sorry that you've been so miserable. However, I am also glad that this new medication is helping you.

Daliresp, as listed by the FDA, is most commonly used to treat COPD, but can also help with other respiratory issues. Typical side effects are listed as possibly including dizziness, headache, sore throat, nausea and diarrhea.

What side effects did you feel were concerning?
