For COPD "Twice now I ran out of Breztri because the inhalers are defective. My last one quit working with 40 puffs, the other with 20. My pharmacy can’t refill because the insurance company won’t pay until 30 days go by. I may have to tell my doctor to change medication."

For COPD "I have been on Breztri for some time now. When I had insurance, my copay was reasonable. But now I’m on Medicare, my first fill of the year was 272.00. I really can’t afford that cost, but I know I need it. It is the only one I have found so far that really helps. But like most other people are saying about the missed doses, it doesn’t even last the full month. I hope they get it fixed."

For COPD "This medication has been extremely helpful, the only one I found in this class that works. It helps with phlegm, it opens lower airways fast and keeps them open. I have found no apparent side effects so far. The only drawback is price, no one should have to pay over $500 for an inhaler. Having worked in the respiratory field for over 20 years, I'm well aware of actual costs."

"I started using Breztri and after a few days had bad neck spasms. I looked at the side effects and see that is an effect. Muscle relaxers are a little relief and ice makes it worse, warm compress have some relief."

For COPD, Maintenance "Have been using this medication for about 10 months now, and it works well when the dispenser works. The dispenser sticks, no medication comes out after several times, and the counter will keep moving forward. Will have to find another medication if they do not change it."

For COPD "Used this inhaler twice yesterday morning, then in the evening. Left orbit swelled and became painful and red. Did not improve with eye drops. Stopped this medication. Am waiting for all symptoms to resolve and will try again. I have many allergies, so do not know if Breztri is the cause of this outbreak. Will try again after all symptoms are gone."

For COPD "I have been on Breztri and thought I was having an allergic reaction, plus the inhaler never gave me a full dose. While waiting for my old inhalers to be ordered, I discovered if I took the medicine out of the yellow container and shook it up and down-not side to side-counting to 10, then put it back in the container, it would work 98% of the time. I would repeat that for the second one. I discontinued the Breztri for a few months to see if it was an allergic reaction of hives, and I believe it was. Although it was convenient to go from 2 inhalers to just 1, I am trying it again to be sure that the hives were not a food allergy. I’m hoping it doesn’t happen again, but sharing my experience of the container may help others to get a full dose every time."

For COPD, Maintenance "Breztri has helped lessen my exacerbations in frequency and severity. Before taking this, I took multiple other medications, and those were causing my vision to have floaters. I don't have this problem taking Breztri."
