Just saw a TV ad for SPRIVA, and only noticed it because I saw your post, Sharon. All the information on the Internet sounds good, but you want to know if anyone has been prescribed it. That's the question. What sounds good is that it does not contain steroids. Maybe someone will see your message this week. If not, can you post on Roadback Foundation? There are so many people, someone there may have had it prescribed.
On the Internet under, SPIRVA side effects, there is probably more than you want to know. If you had an e-mail address I could send it to you, but I don't know how to send a link that will appear on your post.

I used it before when my lungs were really bad. But Now I am just on advair and singulair. I had no problems or side effects from it, in fact it works pretty well.

Thanks so much everyone it just makes my mouth dry but I'm medication so we will see. My CT and Cat Scan on my lungs was done and the doctor wants me to call him so I'm waiting for him to call and yes scared to death and been still crying all night. I'm ready for a total breakdown over everything.
Hugs, Sharon
