I was prescribed Dupixent and will start taking it at the end of next month, after I’m done traveling for the year. (I didn’t want to bring it along on my trips and have to be concerned with starting a new Rx while traveling (especially one that should be kept under 77 degrees.

I have asthma and copd and high eosinophils. I also have 1-6 exacerbations/year and we hope this will help them be less frequent and less severe.

Hello I think waiting until your travel is over before starting is a good idea. You don't know if you will have any type of reaction to it. I was worried with my first injection. I believe I made my own self anxious for no reason because I didn't have any side effects from the first injection. My next injection will be next week. I have not had to use my emergency inhaler since I've started. I just use my maintenance Breztri twice a day. I am breathing so much better. I hope you will have good response as well .
