Olodaterol / tiotropium "I've been on an inhaler for 4 years now. Prior to doing any inhaler, I couldn't use my self-propelled lawnmower any more than 10-15 minutes without being completely out of breath. This medication is my second type for an inhaler. My test of how good an inhaler and breathing improvement is this: breath in, breath out as forceful as I can. Take my first puff, and now I easily can hold my breath for a 60 count. Before, with the other med, I was doing well to get to 30-40 in my head count. This medication works well. As a retired carpenter, do-it-yourself guy, I can work well now without being out of breath every 10 minutes. LOL. At 78, I'm putting in a slow but steady 6-hour workday at home here."

Olodaterol / tiotropium "Stiolto works very well for my COPD. It does have one side effect that I don't like. My eyes water. The substance is oily and makes my eyelashes stick together at night. It can also turn into a solid crystal substance that I have to pull off my eyelashes. I think I will try a dose every other day as I think it may be too much for my body to process. I weigh 108 pounds and may be getting too much medicine for my body."

Olodaterol / tiotropium "I have been using Stiolto for about 3 years. I have found it to be very effective at stopping my COPD cough for the first 3 weeks. After that, the coughing starts back up. As soon as I start a new one, the coughing goes away. The product is good, but the medication runs out before 30 days, and for what they charge for it, it should last 30 days like it says. I would give it a 10 if it lasted 30 days."

"I have only been taking it for 30 days, and my mucus production almost completely disappeared. Before, it would get to the point I would have to cough so violently to get it out of my lungs to keep from wheezing, my ribs would be sore for a couple of days. Now I breathe pretty much normally. The only problem with it for me is the inside of my mouth becomes irritated, much like getting scalded with a hot beverage, and now I can't comfortably eat very spicy foods."

Olodaterol / tiotropium "The medication I found to be good, however, the dispenser is rubbish. It is not user friendly. I am on the second one, which has fallen apart. Going back to GP for an alternative with a reliable dispenser."

"I have been taking this for a few months, and I don't like it and want to come off it. But when I've tried to stop, my breathing gets really bad. I don't know how to come off it without such awful effects. It has also upset my depression. I'm very unhappy that my stupid doctor gave me this in the first place."

Olodaterol / tiotropium "I was taking Spiriva and Advair in the morning, Advair only in the evening. Switched to Stiolto. Now, by the end of the day, I have a hard time breathing. I'm ready to go back to Spiriva and Advair."

Olodaterol / tiotropium "I was on Spiriva Respimat for a couple of years and finally switched to Stiolto Respimat. I've found that my breathing is much better now that I'm on Stiolto. I live in Texas."

"I have just started taking it, but I have a cough, as with the Spiriva, and I have heart palpitations and dizziness... so... I don't think I will carry on taking it, my breathing isn't better."
