Esbriet reduced dose?
Hi my wife and I have escaped Tasmania’s long winter and moved 2500km north to Queensland for a bit of warmth.
Over the last few months I’ve stopped the mid day 801mg tablet, initially by forgetfulness, but now I prefer the lower dose.
I haven’t discussed this move with my pulmonary chap, but will when we return.
The benefits for me are considerable, no morning nausea, return to normal appetite, I’m lazing around in the sun with out any itching. With no deterioration in symptoms ie still coughing etc.
Has anyone here been put on just two Esbriet 801mg tablets per day by their doctor. One of my doctors suggested that if I continued to lose weight they could look at lower dose rate.
Queensland is great sunny mid 20c, (72+f) beach 5 Min away.
Cheers Mal
