Anyone been prescribed Ohtuvayre (new med)? Your experience?

@suzyq61
I also have breathing issues.
I am taking NAC with
Liposomal
Glutathione and breathing better..really helps alleviating Mucus!

For those who need help with their copay for Ohtuvare: Verona Pathway Plus; phone # 833-372-8492. When you call, they will take your information and can email you a form to fill out. It is your basic information, type of insurance, yearly income, # people in house, and if your copay is more than $125. That’s it. Just finished2/23/26, will update when I get approved or not.

I was prescribed about 2 months ago. So far so good. I have noticed less need for the inhalers in course of the day. Saw my pulmonologist last week, he said my pulmonary function has improved? I feel much better in the am, by evening I get drained. As of now I am taking am and pm. I have become very gassy!! But seems to have improved my breathing!!

Haven't posted in quite awhile as things appeared to be running a normal course for Stage 4 COPD with chronic bronchitis phenotype. Last year about this time (2025) had a spell of illness that put me on and off of Prednisone/Antibiotics for almost mid-March. New Pulmo Dr placed me on continuous O2 at 2-3l, I rallied but lost alot of conditioning so started at the gym with a fantastic personal trainer training for a repeat 6-minute walk with better result. Hit with an exacerbation in November, been down-hill all the way. I am drowning in secretions despite the Dupixent I've been taking. Doing all the pulmonary "things"" along with Breztri and ventolin.have gotten progressively worse and had to boost my O2 to 4 liters & get short of breath at that. There is nothing more terrifying than feeling that you are not getting enough air. Gotta have a plan,
I am fresh out of ideas so would appreciate anyone well versed by knowledge and/or experience opinion and/or input. I have gone to see an Interventional Pulmo who suggested removal of the three Zephyr valves I had placed in 2023 as they are non-functional....
it seems that the only approach my General Pulmo can come up with is a Prednisone 40mg x 5 days and a 20 mg x 5 day taper.
Any thoughts anyone could share with me, please.

Those of you posting comments who have had good/satisfactory results with Ohtuvayre do you have a chronic bronchitis with your COPD/Emphysema? And if so have the secretions and congestion gotten better by taking Ohtuvayre

@tschoch I have been on Ohtuv.,,and see no difference; get very light-headed after use; shortness of breath the same after 3 weeks; used my albuterol neb today 3 hours after ohtuv and got better relief. Some comments about ohtuv efficacy are made by those PAID by the pharma company who has greatly restricted its availability and distribution. I am skeptical; disappointed; and most importantly question why my hospital specialty pharmacy is prohibited from dispensing it forcing me to deal with a for-profit.

@kndaustin71 Exacerbating since December with COPD and ABPA; 9 days in hospital; 2 pneumonias; Bronch; specimens still growing; ; increased Pred from 5 >20> 40 daily; Cresemba for lung fungi (++visual side-effects) started Ohtuvayre w/ no change in shortness of breath (+ light-headedness).Questioning toll of side effects vs efficacy of drug cocktails.
