I am going on 10 weeks following my breakthrough case of Covid 19, it has gotten better but it is still bad enough that i consulted a pulmonologist and they have set me up for a CT scan and a subsequent breathing test ,in the mean time i have been instructed to use albuterol inhaler and they prescribed a Ellipta inhaler but it cost me $250 dollars so i am doing without.

@danduhman- Hello. I understand about the expense with Trelegy Ellipta. Have you looked into Canada on line health?

Their prices are a lot better than out-of-pocket in the US. Trelegy Ellipta has 3 different medications and if you can swing it will be well worth it!

Let me know!

Balancing finances and physical need can be difficult and frustrating. In consultation with a pulmonologist, I switched from Albuterol to FLOVENT HFA. Note that Flovent HFA is NOT a rescue inhaler like Albuterol. It is a localized steroid. It might be worth asking your doctor and insurance company. Best wishes!
