For COPD "This medicine was prescribed to me for 30 days. At the end of that time, it had paralyzed the left side of my vocal chord, severely reducing my ability to talk and causing me to choke very easily because the vocal chords won’t come together. It also makes it very hard to breathe normally. I highly recommend staying away from this medication. It has affected my life in a drastic manner."

For COPD, Maintenance "I have been on this med in addition to a corticosteroid inhaler. I am new to using inhalers. The inhaler has taken my breathing back to normal breathing. No wheezing, normal pulse, and able to walk a distance without getting out of breath as I was prior. I do not like the bitter taste of the inhaler and cannot tolerate a long stream of inhaling it because of the bitter taste. However, I am able to tolerate holding my breath 3x as long as I was when I started it a week ago. I use it as part of my morning care and brush my teeth before and after. So far, I have not had any adverse effects other than the terrible taste."

Umeclidinium for COPD "I got pneumonia twice in my 7 months that I used this. And it took 2 months to recover each time. This was the only difference in routine. So, I'm done with it. Not for me, thanks."

For COPD, Maintenance "My first reaction was the taste is awful, but for two and a half weeks now, my joints and muscles have been very bad with pain and extreme tiredness. Today, I decided to check the side effects and found that this drug is not what I was told it was, and according to the medical patient leaflet, should not be given to asthmatics. However, after research, I am even more annoyed because it is possible to take another drug if you have COPD/Asthma, which is made by the same company. This drug was given by a practice nurse because the inhaler is easier to use than other inhalers. If a consultant/GP had reviewed it, we might have saved the suffering, but there are no available appointments these days."
