For Asthma "I was prescribed 1 treatment a day. After the third treatment, I became very hoarse. I felt like my head was stopped up like never before. My throat felt closed up, my lungs as well. Trouble breathing. Rash on my side. Constipation. It’s now 4 days after the last treatment, and I’m still having trouble with my throat and voice. This drug was given to me from the doctor’s office. Sample."

For COPD "Didn't get COPD till I was 90! Dr. gave me samples of Trelegy. Very helpful with breathing, but after 1 week use I developed hives all over trunk, upper legs, and upper arms. Dr. gave me samples of Breztri. So far, good medicine."

For Asthma "Soon after I started using Trelegy Ellipta, my mouth became extremely dry to the point that now I find it hard to chew food. I also find that toothpaste stings the inside walls of my mouth and tongue. I have looked but see no whiteness as I would if I had thrush. I used to use Symbicort, and the doctor started me on about a month ago on Trelegy. I liked it since I only had to take it once a day, but I don't like the powder that sticks in my throat after use. I swish and gargle after each use. It is hard for me to see if I have thrush in my throat. I am also suffering from a rash and had prick tests last week that confirm old allergic environmental reactions. The rash is not going away, and severe itching is now in the lower back."

For Asthma "I broke out in hives and had to go to the hospital to get medicine to help me with the hives. I have, I'm only saying I'm allergic to this medication, and I am a severe asthmatic."
