Wayne- I believe that it is a new inhaler that combines three different drugs. I don't know enough about medicines in inhalers to advise you. You will have to ask a professional. I have three inhalers. One opens up my passage ways and I also use it as a rescue inhaler. Another one is a steroid and another one is specific I think to smoking, Spiriva. Most people with COPD need three inhalers to handle different parts of the lungs.

As I said earlier, you need to be treated better and I would call as soon as they are open for another physician. Can you do this on Monday? Are they open today?
