Has anyone used Trelegy?

After inhaling Trelegy Ellipta, I start a stopwatch & hold my breath for 24 seconds before exhaling, in an attempt to allow the maximum benefit from the medicine. Does anyone one else do something similar?

I do hold my breath after I use the Trelegy inhaler . I don’t time it . Before I do the Trelegy, I make it a point to do a few deep breathing exercises. I try to clear retained carbon dioxide . It allows me to take a deeper breath with the medication. I wish the best to all here. Blessed Be, Crystalina

I exhale in short spurts, then re-inhale to make sure it's "good to the last drop!"

I thought you were supposed to hold your breath for a maximum of 10 seconds before exhaling(?)
