When I was Esbriet (I am now on Ofev), I received in the mail a pill container. It is circular and has 7-Monday through Sunday pill holders that have 3 places for pills. I fill it up every Monday and include my other pills I take and keep it right on my placemat where I sit. It’s so user friendly and if I go out to eat I can slip one of the 3… Read more

I just received my booster this pass Saturday, the day after it was approved. I read that an interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension are qualifying diseases, of which I have both. I’m 64 and had no issues at all, I told them what I have and they gave me the vaccine. It was just a walk in clinic, not my Drs office. I’m so glad!

Thank you Denise for a great question and all the answers! I am now going to inquire about the 3 shot. My pcp, and medical grp I belong to, don’t seem to think I’m eligible. Time to be a squeaky wheel.

Hello All,

What a wonderful thread this was. I noticed it was from months ago, but it just turned up in my email, and I’m new to the group. Glad to see that Ofev can be used long term. I started on Esbriet, but I was so very sick from it-nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, and sun poisoning, even being very cautious. My Dr. switched me to Ofev 150,… Read more

Hi All,

I developed Pulmonary Hypertension as a result of my IPF. My PCP couldn’t lower my blood pressure, which was new to me, and although HBP is a side effect of the Ofev, she told me to see my pulmonologist, who ordered an echo and a cardiac stress test, the PH showed up in the test. I also have thickening in my left ventricle. They upped… Read more
