Trimbow Inhalers

Trimbow Inhalers are prescription-only triple therapy inhalers licensed for both asthma and COPD. They combine three proven medicines into one inhaler to improve airway control, breathing comfort, and long-term lung health.

Trimbow is commonly prescribed when standard inhalers are no longer enough to control symptoms. It fits into daily respiratory care rather than emergency use and can also be used with a compatible spacer if recommended by a prescriber. Following an online consultation and clinical review by a UK-registered prescriber, Trimbow Inhalers can be supplied securely through Pharmacy Planet.

Trimbow inhalers are used for chronic asthma treatment and are sometimes prescribed for adults with COPD, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis. They are usually recommended when symptoms remain active despite regular use of inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting bronchodilators.

Trimbow Inhalers are prescribed to: control ongoing asthma symptoms more consistently, reduce airway inflammation and tightening, and support long-term airway management and lung health. This combination inhaler targets asthma and COPD symptoms from multiple angles, making Trimbow suitable for people who need stronger, more stable respiratory control.

Asthma and COPD symptoms often happen because the airways become inflamed, tight, and overreactive. Trimbow Inhalers work by targeting these problems in three different ways at the same time.

• Reduces Airway Inflammation — Beclometasone (inhaled corticosteroid) reduces swelling and irritation inside the airways, lowering the risk of flare-ups and ongoing breathing discomfort.
• Keeps the Airways Open for Easier Breathing — Formoterol relaxes the muscles around the airways, allowing air to move in and out more freely and keeping breathing steadier across the day and night.
• Prevents Sudden Airway Tightening — Glycopyrronium blocks signals that cause the airway muscles to tighten unexpectedly, reducing episodes of chest tightness and breathlessness.

When used every day, Trimbow Inhalers improve airflow, stabilise breathing, and support long-term airway management and lung health.

Trimbow inhalers are used for adults 18 years and over. Available in two strengths: 87/5/9 micrograms and 172/5/9 micrograms.

Standard Dose (Adults 18+): Two puffs in the morning and two puffs in the evening. This is both the usual and maximum daily dose. Take every day, even when symptoms feel controlled.

Without a spacer:

1. Check the dose counter. Remove the cap and ensure the mouthpiece is clean.
2. Breathe out slowly and fully.
3. Place the mouthpiece between your lips without biting.
4. Breathe in slowly and press the canister once.
5. Continue inhaling for 4–5 seconds, then hold your breath briefly.
6. Breathe out slowly and repeat for the second puff.

With a spacer:

1. Remove the cap and shake the inhaler.
2. Insert the inhaler upright into the spacer.
3. Seal your lips around the spacer mouthpiece and press the inhaler once.
4. Breathe normally through the spacer for around five breaths.
5. Remove and replace the inhaler cap.

Trimbow Inhalers may be suitable if you:

• Have asthma that remains poorly controlled on standard preventer and LABA inhalers.
• Have moderate to severe COPD and require triple therapy for symptom control.
• Need a single inhaler combining an inhaled corticosteroid and bronchodilators for daily airway management.
• Want structured, long-term respiratory care to support breathing stability and lung health.

Trimbow Inhalers may not be suitable if you:

• Need rapid relief during a sudden asthma or COPD attack.
• Have mild asthma that is controlled with simpler inhaler treatment.
• Have been advised against triple therapy inhalers by a healthcare professional.

Like all medicines, Trimbow inhalers can cause side effects.
