User Reviews for Daliresp oral

I have taken this med two different times with two week interruptions due to side effects. Both times when I take Daliresp 250 mg or 500mg both meds would not allow me to sleep at all. It was like someone had propped my eyes open. Also had leg cramps, extreme tiredness, made me very nervous and anxious. My system just won't tolerate this med. When checking with mfg I found out there is a lot of side effects and mine was nominal compared to the complete list.

I have been on oxygen for 5 years now. Before taking Daliresp I could barely walk 20 steps without having to stop, I now can double that. Recovery time of catching my breath is cut in half and my doctor can actually hear air moving in my lungs when before it was very deminished. I have been on this for 4 months with no problems.

On the 3rd day of taking this drug I developed severe diarrhea. I lost my appetite and consequently my blood pressure decreased and I felt faint and light headed. I do not know if these side effects would lessen over time, because my doctor told be to stop taking Daliresp after 10 days. This did not help my breathing as others have claimed.

This drug is an adjunctive medication to my daily medication therapy for severe COPD. I feel it has been very instrumental in decreasing the audible wheezing and increasing my lung fuction as well as my activity level. Yes, I have noticed occas. tremors and dizziness but the rescue inhalers contribute to these side effects as well. It is difficult to distinguish which causes what. The benefit of Daliresp outweighs the side effects. The one thing I have noted but unable to contribute to Daliresp is the muscle cramping. I have developed intermittent severe cramping in my lower extremities. The other thing I would suggest is LOWER THE COST OF THE DRUG. Two hundred dollars a month is a high cost to pay for any medication, even the Canadian pharmacy charges $225. Thank God that my pulmanologist has given me samples on occasion. I would recommend the medication to anyone who deals with COPD. Read More Read Less

I have had 6 oral thrush infections since being diagnosed with copd stage III and suffer most of the side effects. I was dx'ed 4/2011 and have taken since may. Some of the time I'm sure it has been the antiobiotics, but on 2 ocassions I hadn't taken for 2 weeks and have been taking preventative action (cuturelle) Wondered if you all had experienced this.

Tremor, mild depression, and dizziness are the side effects that have effected me the most. I have also had decreases appetite, headaches, and sinusitis. Glad this is the last week I have to take it. We'll have to come up with another treatment if the difficulty breathing every time I go outside comes back.

couldnt do a lot of things without sob and now easier to breath and do alot of things i did before

After getting past some rather severe side effects (nausea, frequent trips to the bathroom, lack of appetite), I love this medication. It has helped me immensely.

I was experiencing frequent shortness of breath. Other medicine I was taking hurt my stomach.I have less shortness of breath able to do more without being attached to oxygen. No problems when taken on an empty stomach.

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 Daliresp can prevent one or two of these a year it would really help my quality of life. For now I would highly recommend this productRead More Read Less
