I was using ProAir every four hours, and my chest was so tight I was panting. Now using Dulera, and there is a 100% change. Can breathe well all day, and sleep good at night. I'm 67 years old.

This medication makes me very tired and I felt my whole body loses energy. The chest tightness improves but I cannot take it whenI have to drive and go to work.

Be very careful with this stuff. Yes, it cleared my lungs beautifully, but it landed me in the hospital with a scary infection. I'm a youngish woman in good health on a low dose--I will NOT be taking this anymore, its not worth the considerable risks.

I was diagnosed with Asthma about 10 years ago. Since then, I have been on numerous medications, Advair, Flovent, Combivent, 4 different formulations of albuterol, and even a twice daily nebulizer treatment on top of all the other meds. All of that stopped when I ended up at the hospital because none of it worked and I couldn't breathe. The wonderful ER doctor prescribed a regular albuterol rescue inhaler and Dulera. I haven't had this much lung function in years!! I'm able to actually do things I couldn't do before without getting winded. My symptoms have never been this well controlled before. It's wonderful to only have to take 2 medications instead of 5 or six at a time.Read More Read Less

One puff and I had a severe reaction to Dulera. Heart palpatations, severe anxiety, increase blood pressure. I have mild to moderate asthma. I am not going to take this again!

Allergic Asthma patient for several years - tried a couple of combination inhalers in the past. My family doctor wanted me to try Dulera. I have been taking it for two months & am finding that it is providing symptom control for me better than any of the previous therapies. Very pleased with Dulera!

I have had side effects from using this inhaler. Racing heart, nausea, flu like syptoms, dry mouth, restlessness and many others. I have been tested 3 times and all 3 test show no asthma. But my allergist prescribed this medicine stating I may still have underlying asthma. I feel that if you truly have asthma this medication would probably work for you but I have a tendancy to be allergic to many medicines.

I developed asthma in my 40's and it has gotten worse over time, I was on many other inhalers and Dulera has quieted my coughing a lot. I have noticed that I have started wheezing now and I am not sure if it's from Dulera. It wakes me up at night. I will have to get back to the doctor and ask if this is a side effect.

I've had bad asthma due to allergies since '08 which had cause a mucous blockage in my bronchi called "bronchiectasis". I was on different inhalers and a nebulizer until my allergist gave me Dulera. This cleared up the blockage and made it easy for me to breathe. Its a great product but USE as DIRECTED.
