Daliresp has been a Godsend for me. It took me a good month however to get used to it. I spent a lot of time in the bathroom and didn't want to eat a lot of the time. The side effects left as quickly as they came on. I have been using Daliresp (and Daxas before that) for well over a year now. I have not has so much as a sniffle and I used to get bronchitis and other respiratory ailments a lot. I also lost some needed weight and have kept it off. Many people quit after only a short period of time, but the side effects do go away and not everyone has them.

Barbara, thanks so much fro sharing your experience with this new drug. I'm so glad to hear that you've been able to avoid getting sick. This is so hopeful for me.

For the past 10 years or so, every September, I get really sick. So we'll just have to see if this coming Autumn, I can stay out of the ER or the hospital!

I'm also glad to hear about your experience with the side effects.
Thanks!
Hugs, Sue
