@wangling i’ve been on Brinsupri for three months and I am so short of breath especially when I get up to walk sitting not as bad. I’m experiencing elevated heart rate also But have not seen that as a side effect for the drug I’m on 10 mg and I am 84 years old I also have a Mac infection.

@jeanettegm5 Continue consistent airway clearance while taking Brinsupri. The medication does not replace the need to keep the lungs clear. It helps reduce inflammation and decreases mucus, but residual phlegm remains and must still be cleared to support free as possible breathing.
