Have just been prescribed hydromophine for SOB. I have severe emphysema and am just wondering if anyone in this group has found this advantagios?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the COPD: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Support Group.

I'm trying to find something for my chronic cough. I'll look up the medication you are taking. Have a great night and I hope it helps you

Palliative gave me morphine as well, liquid form I find it to be extremely helpful for SOB. It tricks the mind into not feeling suffocating sensations.

Im finding the same feeling. Am only taking it when really necessary as it does make me quite sleepy. I have also got the liquid kind. Anything that helps is sure good. Take care.
