I am on ARIKAYCE and it’s administered through a special nebulizer. I was on it for several years and was MAC free for about 18 months. I have MAC again and have been on ARIKAYCE for about a month. It is supplied in single dose vials of 590mg/8.4ml.

Hi @bdr. Were you on Arikayce only or did they do other antibiotics first and then add on Arikayce? I was diagnosed 4 years ago and started on the BIG 3 but could not tolerate them. Nothing much after that. I feel the doc may go with Aarikayce next month as my lungs are worse. Lots of Tobramycin because of chronic pseudomonas.

Hi @bdr. I use a Pari-LC neb set up as recommended for inhaling Tobramycin. Is that what you use with Arikayce? Thanks.
