"Liquid form works amazing. I have some allergy to mold that affects my esophagus and breathing, in addition to eosinophilic esophagitis. Anyway, this drug is a miracle worker. As others have mentioned, it not only helped my breathing, but it improved my swallowing dysmotility by taking down inflammation to the point where I could swallow bread and full meals. I get bad when I am off of it again. Unfortunately, the anti-inflammatory properties stopped working over time, though, due to anti-fungal resistance. So I learned that with resistance, even the anti-inflammatory effects eventually stop working as you become resistant. My gastroenterologist thought it was quite interesting how this drug worked so well for me. Even now, I take it every 3-4 months for 10 days at a 400 mg dose as well, but although it doesn’t work as strongly as it used to, it still helps significantly. They seriously need to research it more. People here are saying it got rid of things they didn’t expect, I had the same experience."
