I thought that I would send an update on Inbrija Inhaler that I am trying. I have been having a lot of freezing lately and the inhaler is helpful at times but also not always helpful. It seems that is the way it is with PD. What works one time doesn’t work the next. I would say it helps 60% of the time. It does help fast, within minutes, so that is great when my freezing is really bad and I am struggling to just stay upright. I wish I had more consistent results with it, but for me it is worth trying when my Rytary is not doing its job. It is a little tricky to get the hang of how to use it. Make sure you inhale slowly and gently to decrease your coughing. Have a glass of water next to you so you can take a sip when your cough starts. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hello @21amy,

When you last posted, you mentioned that the Inbrijia Inhaler was not always helpful. As it has been a while since you posted, I was wondering how you are doing with the episodes of freezing. Are you finding more consistent relief with the inhaler now?
