Easy to setup. Inhale SLOWLY. It may make you cough. But only once or so. No gagging. No vomiting. No prolonged coughing. It helps me a lot! I use it when I need to.

This powder is nearly impossible to inhale. It mostly ends up coating the inside of my mouth and I just end up swallowing it. It makes me cough and gag. There is no way I can inhale it and hold my breath for 5 seconds. I have noticed that my tremor and gait are actually worse the next morning after taking Inbrija the evening before.

I have had slow onset PD for 22 years. Haven't smoked since I was a teenager and have learned slow, strong inhalation of Inbrija with no coughing. This is so good that my major problem is in limiting its use. It's all too tempting to use it too much and its effectiveness is declining over time (used since 2019). Currently (02.2022) at 2 doses per day.

Awful ! Followed step by step instructions, inhaled, didn’t hear whirl, inhaled again & immediately started choking/coughing. My throat is irritated & hoping I don’t get pneumonitis. This is your best for 2021 ????

Not for me. Went thru all the set-up steps , inhaled, didn’t hear the whirl, inhaled deeper & immediately began coughing/choking. Throat irritated & hoping I don’t end up with pneumonitis…. This is 2021 & this is the newest treatment??

Quickly inhaling a powder directly into your lungs will cause an immediate gag or coughing affect. This makes it rather difficult to use when you accidentally cough it back out after inhaling it. But the Product does seem to work after I took a double dose of what is recommended or prescribed.

Tough to inhale. But it works fast and gets me through my off times. I take Rytary 4 x 4. I’m trying it out, I don’t know what the cost will be. I might not be able to afford it.

If you can manage to not gag and throw up it is somewhat effective. It is basically trying to inhale powder, so I don"t know how. I was prescribed this for times I have to get up at night and function. Doesn't work well for this. Too many steps to take it and I cough for at least 15 minutes. Not worth it to me for only an hour or so of effectiveness.

Expect coughing and possibly harsh histamine reaction upon initial use. Keep lots of tissues handy. Like inhaling really bad weed

Works well to treat off periods, but I hate to take it. Horrible to inhale this medicine. It's like breathing in a dusty sandstorm.
