This drug does more than I ever expected it would. Ive been on it for two weeks now and have noticed I am actually able to do more activity than I had been. Obviously the drug is new so I cant speak for long term treatment but if it lives up to what its approved for then it will do wonders for myself. I experience numerous flar-ups a year and find myself in the ER at least once a year. If Dali...

I have severe copd & use nebulizer twice a day, rescue inhaler as needed (4 to 12 times a day) & symbicort 2 times per day. There's nothing worse than not being able to breath. Life sucks on my bad days. Started taking dailresp last month and it works great!! Breathing is a lot better. Feeling a lot better. Makes sense if your body is getting more oxygen you should feel better. Only side effects I'm having bouts of diarrhea and trouble sleeping but hopefully these will stop after a while. I can live with it either way. Read More Read Less

I do think this drug helps with my breathing, however, the side effects are horrible. Can't sleep, bad tremors, stomach pain and can barely make myself eat anything and I can't afford to lose weight. Plan to discontinue today after only one week.

I took this drug for four days before I noticed any changes other than insomnia (big time)and headache (big time). Then, on the fifth dose I noticed I was having thoughts on how best to leave this world. I started having diarrhea and the worst was the low back pain and sciatica like symptoms down the back of both legs. The pain was only alleviated with ice packs. No amountaspirin, ibuprofen or Tylenol could touch it. I did notice after the fifth day that I was breathing quite a bit better and not having as many bronchospasms. I decided to try alternating the dose one day on, one day off. No help with adverse side effects. I skipped three days in between doses; also with no help. I don't think I can stand to take this med due to the back pain, headache, depressive thoughts and diarrhea. I wonder if a person took it for a couple of months would the bad side effects go away? Thanks for listening.Read More Read Less

I have bronchiectasis and bronchial asthma along with COPD. I use 3 meds in nebulizer twice daily. Was using rescue inhaler 2 - 4 times a day. In my 6th week with daliresp, I have used rescue inhaler only 3 times. What a joy to have such relief.

I'm a 49 year old AfricanAmerican woman with severe asthma. I'm also 40pounds over weight, steroid induced Cataracts, steroid induced Osteopenia, hypertensive, sleep apnea and have type 2 Diabetes. I tried this drug for a week. My left arm and hand started to go numb, then I experienced diarrhea with a funny headache to boot. I was prescribed this drug by my Internal Medicine Doctor. My Pulmonary doctor felt that it was too new of a drug to really try it.(2 Yrs in the U.S.)But I went ahead to see if it would get me some relief. I have enough problems and I got off of it before I had any further side effects that I could not reverse.Read More Read Less

I had been living off of my rescue inhalers and nebulizer constantly. The very first day i took daliresp, i noticed a difference. Less inhaler use. After taking this medicine for a week now, i rarely need to use my rescue inhaler, i can walk much further without having to stop to breathe. I have severe copd.So far the only side affect is teeth clenching. I can deal with that, i would rather breathe.Last year, i had pulmonary failure due to pneunomia.After that i have had to call 911 5 times, and be brought to er for steroid treatments and over night stays.I can breathe like i did 6 years ago. i love this drug so far.the medicine far outweighs the side effects. NOTHING IS WORSE THAN NOT BEING ABLE TO BREATHE.Read More Read Less

Taking for severe Asthmatic Bronchitis, and milder COPD. Kept me fairly healthy this fall. Some side effects (nausea,weight loss,back pain,headaches)but worth it to breathe. Taking Zofran for nausea and something for pain. Unfortunately so far insurance will not cover this med that actually works for me. Figures. So far have been taking samples, can't afford $200 per month.

I have been taking Daliresp about six months. The only side effect I had was weight loss, which I needed. Had difficulty sleeping the first few night's, but that went away. I have not had a serious flare up since I have been on this medication, felt better, breath easier, overall quality of life is better. Wish I had known about this drug long ago.

I had to stop taking this drug because my hips and legs hurt so bad that I couldn't sleep at night. As long as I was moving Or walking i was ok, but when I sat down or laid down I hurt really bad. I was taking Vicodin for the pain so I could take the dilaresp for my lungs. Not good.

I was taking this drug for approximately 2 weeks before I decided to quit because of side affects.... insomnia, shakes, numbness of body,feeling weird, but within a day I had one of those nasty breathing attacks. I have decided the side affects are worth it so I would have very few flare ups. I take an ativan to help me feel somewhat better after taking the daliresp, it makes me feel better. Atleast I can breathe now without laboring. Good Luck To everyone taking this drug, I hope it works for you.Read More Read Less

Since I have been taking this drug, 1 month, I have noticed the last week, my insomnia is very bad. My breathing was better in the early stages of the drug, but so far the last week, it hasn't helped hardly at all with my shortness of breath. It might be because the drug makes me very nervous, therefor limiting my air flow. Another thing I have noticed is its like my body feels like its going numb or something, like the air isn't reaching my legs and arms. Kinda of like when the attacks come. I will call my doctor today, because I think this is why my body feels so weird and I have shortness of breath worse than when I started the drug. For the people it helps, I'm very glad for you, and hopefully one day another drug, without the side affects will come out! Read More Read Less
