Weaning off Breo

Hello. Yes, I am on BREO Ellipta. I have moderate COPD, and I do very well on this medication without side effects. I’ve been on it for about three years and did try to use it only when I thought I needed it instead of a steady daily dose. I could tell the difference. Also, I never had any lung congestion ever. The irritation I have with BREO is the cost; it is expensive until your deductible is met, and still about $75 a month after I met the deductible.

@jenben59 I have a lot of congestion and am working on ways to decrease that. I have osteoporosis and have been on this medication for 3 years. My osteoporosis is worse, not blaming the Breo solely, but it can be a factor. Just would like to give my body a break while I work on some things that are natural, healthy eating, weight bearing exercises, etc.
