Comment:
THIS MEDICINE HAS MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE UP TO NOW. I AM FINALLY OFF HIGH DOSES OF STEROIDS AFTER 11 YEARS AND FINALLY STARTING TO FEEL REALLY GOOD PHYSICALLY. THE PAIN FROM GETTING OFF THE STEROIDS WAS REALLY BAD BUT ITS OVER. I WOULD SAY THAT MY LIFE IS 80% BETTER SINCE STARTING THE CINQAIR TREATMENT BACK IN JAN OF 17. HAVE HAD NO SIDE EFFECTS.

Comment:
This drug has really stabilised my asthma which was difficult to control without prednisone. I just wish I could get more information on how long I should be on it and also the experience of others with side effects. So far I have not experienced any although still coping with weight and bone pain from prednisone

Comment:
For the first time in years, my asthma is under control and while I still have to use my Advair daily, I am able to live a normal lifestyle. In the past I would experience almost monthly flareups that would require high doses of prednisone or hospitalization to reverse. But I have not had one flareup since taking cinqair.

Comment:
Cinqair has eliminated my use of all other drugs for asthma patients. The economic issue for me is the impact on work to travel to the hospital for the infusion. The personal impact on me is that I have gained approximately 30 pounds while taking this medication.
