I have been on it for two weeks and am very disappointed. No effect at all. Doc says keep trying. I am at the point of barely making it and was really looking forward to it.

Yes, I have been using it since mid March and found it to be very helpful as an additional nebulized med along with Formoterol and Budesonide. It is originally white in color - you need to shake it vigorously until it turns yellow - I learned that through some research on the product.

I was looking forward to it as well. You lasted longer than I did......after 5 days I was done. As an add-on to your regular treatment with inhalers one should see the effects when it is taken. It's not a medication that should take time to become effective. I'll have to go back and read the studies. Hype over nothing!
