Many prescribed drugs just let you choose a different way to die  |
I suspect this was Tiotropium (one trade name of Spiriva).
Usually taken by patients with COPD for breathing problems. Obviously, a wise decision by the doctor as you appear to have this type of problem.
I cannot find any side effects as you describe on the internet... most reactions are mild with, of course, the usual, very rare ones.
It's your decision of course ....we have discussed many times ...always the risk value here.
Just keep well anyway ... x
