Increase/decrease of phlegm with Brinsupri

Posted by turtlegals @turtlegals, 1 day ago

I have been taking Brinsupri for about 6 months and initially, had a decrease in phlegm . At this time however, I am noticing a gradual increase in the amount of phlegm I am producing. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

Yes, I also noticed an increase for a bit. It seems that things kept changing, and I am now at almost 10 months and sputum has stabilized in quantity -- for now. Keep in mind that sputum amounts change daily anyway, with or without Brinsupri. Just like sleep can be different every night. Many variables involved. Brinsupri has reduced the amount of gunk I get out by about by 1/3. I still have/feel the need for airway clearance. The biggest difference I have felt so far is less coughing all around, and increased energy. Makes sense since frequent coughing takes a lot out of the body. The real tell will be after the 1 year mark, as the clinical trials only ran for 1 year. Will we keep getting better? Time will tell.
