I am “assuming” the med you are talking about is Arikayce?? It is inhaled. All I can tell you is I was on it after having not such great success with oral meds and was cured with Arikayce. I am also the caregiver for my husband with Lewy Body/Parkinson’s so I understand your plight with side effects and taking care of someone. The Arikares people are correct about side effects being mostly hoarseness. Wishing you well. Irene 5
