"I've been taking Dupixent for just over two years. I was diagnosed with severe asthma in my mid-20s and have been struggling with it for almost 10 years. It was to the point that I couldn't walk around the block or up the stairs without wheezing. I was taking 2.5mg Prednisone daily and was on the maximum dose of Trelegy but still had exacerbations requiring high-dose Prednisone about twice a year. Dupixent immediately improved my symptoms and has been nothing short of a miracle drug for me. Unfortunately, around the 2-year mark, it started to lose its effectiveness around day 10 or so of the 2-week dosing cycle. I'm also getting constant blepharitis and styes in my eyes. I'm back to using my inhaler and nebulizer once or twice a day. Hoping to find another biologic that will work as well. If anyone is having trouble covering this medication, check out Cover My Meds. I was able to qualify to get Dupixent for free due to my income level."

"I have no comment thus far. I have had two initial injections, one in each arm. Five weeks later I had one injection in my left thigh. Nothing changed so far."

"Dupixent has changed my life!!! I’m able to actually take deep breaths again. Before starting Dupixent, was practically living on steroids and more often than not had coughing that caused bruised ribs. I have been giving myself an injection every two weeks and haven’t noticed any side effects except for diarrhea, but I’ve had serious stomach surgery and have a “rebuilt” stomach now. I had some joint pain that lasted several weeks but it went away. I strongly suggest trying Dupixent. I am now completely OFF all steroids and OFF all four inhalers."
