For COPD, Maintenance "I think the medicine works well. I have some side effects with sleeping, coughing, muscle aches, and cramps. The biggest problem is the dispensary. I don’t know if it’s giving me a full dose, half a dose, or no dose, and when I try spraying it to see how much comes out, it’s very little. They need to fix the inhaler immediately for us poor people who have COPD. Thank you."

"I was wondering why I was feeling tired and nauseated and felt like I had something in my throat that I needed to clear constantly. However, I continued to take it, and I started developing a cough. I finally looked up the side effects, and there they were. Now I know why I was having all those symptoms. I'm not taking it anymore."

For COPD, Maintenance "I have a lot of the symptoms with regard to this inhaler. Exhaustion, shortness of breath, general fatigue, and discomfort in back between shoulder blades - more coughing and some sputum. I feel I need to be more active - just feeling unmotivated."

For COPD, Maintenance "The first time I used it, I coughed for 2 hours straight. I was told by the doctor to only use 1 puff in the morning and 1 in the evening. It does not appear to do anything but make me cough up mucus more, which is what I'm trying to avoid. I have also been very irritated and angry since taking it. I am calling my doctor to discontinue and find me something else. I do not have a rescue inhaler, which I need. Bad experience overall. 100 mcg twice a day."

"I was given a sample by my pulmonologist after I got bronchitis from a cold. It worked great for the first 2 weeks (was using it for about 5 weeks) but then I started to feel anxiety only when I took the evening dose (using 2 puffs in the AM and 2 puffs at PM). Also, I started getting night sweats. I took it for a month, and I'm stopping it because I don't like the anxiety feeling and I think it made me start coughing again. I don't want to stay on it if I'm getting these side effects."
