Hi CM92792f, and thanks for sharing your own personal experiences managing this disease (COPD), and using this medication. We appreciate it.
Sometimes, determining just-the-right medication regimen can take some doing. Often times, it can be a trial-and-error approach working (very closely), with one's doctor(s). Even though several of the medications may be similar, there can be subtle differences between them that may not affect you in the same way this medication (Anoro Ellipta) did. There are also a host of other medications that you (and your doctor), may be able to consider. Do you think speaking with your physician (and possible your pharmacist, as well), may help in this instance?
