Prescribed Ofev, anyone have experience with this drug?

I started Ofev 150mg twice a day over a year ago. I had GI issues at the beginning and now I am doing better. How you would tolerate the meds is very personal so be easy on yourself and adjust your foods accordingly. What helped also with diarrhea is taking the iron pill which I was taking to improve my hemoglobin. Hope my experience is helpful.

Thanks so much for your response. Do you think the Ofev has helped your lung function? I'm still struggling with getting over this pneumonia. Did you use any Imodium AD or Pepto Bismol for the diarrhea? My hemoglobin was low after knee surgery but has come back to normal after taking iron. I'm thinking I will wait a month or so to start Ofev. Hopefully I will be over this pneumonia. Also I'm starting a new medication for my RA, Actemra. So I'd like to see how that works.
Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it!
