Has Anyone Been Prescribed Breztri? And What Is Your Thoughts?

A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭
St.Thomas, Ontario Canada

My resperolagist just changed my medication. I was talking Spiriva, 2 puffs 1x a day and Zenhale 2 puffs 4x a day. Now with Breztri, I'm taking 2 puffs 2x a day. He was very excited about Breztri and said that it will be a game changer, I'm hoping he's right. Please let me know your thoughts of it.....thanks

When you were taking Spiriva and Zenhale, you were getting all three major classes of medicine for COPD: a LABA, a LAMA and an ICS. The Spiriva was the LAMA and the Zenhale was the LABA and the ICS combined. Now with the Breztri, you're getting all three in one dose. The other thing to know is that most pharma companies produce a LABA, a LAMA and an ICS, but because of patent laws, each pharma company has a specific set of chemicals for each of them and they're all different. When they creat a combination med, like Breztri, they can only use their LABA, their LAMA and their ICS. If the three all work for you in combination, that's great; if they don't you're SOL. Apparently it works for you....that's good!

I started on Breztri about 2 weeks ago and already see improvement. I don't know how long I'll be able to afford it but it does help.

I use it, it was a game changer for me, I can do more than I use to considering. We can't jump up and run off, but I can do my dishes now and walk my house.
