The LABA/LAMA has not reduced my sputum production in the past years and a half. I still cough up crud all day long.

Just to clarify...you are on Symbicort (sp?) right? and that is a LABA plus a steroid I think (formoterol and budesonide ). It's the LAMA that I was more concerned with as it is an anticholinergic (sp?) and Trelegy has the steroid, the LAMA and a LABA....oh dear! I'm on Breo which is a LABA and a steroid (vilanterol and fluticasone furoate) but how it exactly differs from Symbicort is beyond my pay grade. I think they are similar though.

Thanks Sue...good to know. I had heard that LABA's should not be taken without a steroid but I don't know if that continues to be true. The LAMA is the anticholinergic as far as I understand it and you are saying that that has not caused any drying up so thanks for that info.
