@lilianna I find this interesting that an NJH doctor is suggesting Dupixent. I mentioned it to a pulmonologist last year when I heard about it. I wonder if all NJH pulmonologists suggest it and under what circumstances????
I wonder what is in Dupixent that might differ from Brinsupri. Did the NJH mention anything like that??
Reading @scoops reply I looked it up and it talked about first approved in 2017. Drug.com has information on it. You may have already read it.
Wow, decision making nearly continuously in life with each diagnosis and continuing concerns.

Sorry I meant Xolair (omalizumab), which FDA approved 2003 for allergic asthma. Targets IgE.

@blm1007blm1007 from what I understood Dupixent works on eosinophils while brinsupri affects neutrophils.
