I started taking the newly approved BE medicine Brensupri in February of 2026.  I'm interested in any feedback from others who are also using this medicine.

Thank you

Tim,

Hello! I haven’t taken Brinsupri yet but I have heard a lot of positive results recently. Brinsupri takes an average of 6 weeks or more to show results.

Thanks for your reply.  I've been on it for about 10 weeks now.  Not sure what to expect in terms of results other than the claim that it will reduce flare ups.  I've noticed no side effects as yet, so that is good.  However, I cannot say it has reduced my daily symptoms (mucus, coughing, etc.) at all.  I am hoping someone else may be on it as well so I can hear their experience with Brinsupri.

Tim,

Hello! You are most welcome! I hope that you do see more results in time. I assume that you have discussed this with your Pulmonologist who has prescribed Brinsupri?

I started talking it & developed headaches shortly after starting. I also had severe GI issues. Had anyone had this?

I am noticing one side effect....... dry skin.  I began using OTC healing lotion which helps with that one.

Dry skin is treatable. Do you take a daily vitamin in case one of your vitamins maybe low as well?

Maybe have blood work drawn for vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Medications can sometimes causes deficiencies in these areas. With that said, deficiencies in some of these areas can cause dry skin.

Yes, vitamin A and other vitamins can be the cause of dry skin. Eucerin or other good quality skin lotions can lessen the dryness.
