I was recently prescribed Combivent Respimat for my COPD. The inhaler contains both ipratropium and albuterol, which are supposed to help open up my airways. It's not a rescue inhaler, so I need to use it regularly and not just when I'm having trouble breathing. I've read the possible side effects, which are a bit scary, but I hope it helps manage my symptoms. Has anyone else used this inhaler? What was your experience like? Did you have any side effects to watch out for?
