TEXT ONSCREEN: My life with COPD

MIKE:

Once I had COPD I noticed that it took me longer to do stuff, like cutting the grass or, you know, you'd stop, take a break.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Real patients who were taking TRELEGY at the time of filming and one of their caregivers. GSK paid them for their time and expenses for sharing their unique experiences. Individual results may vary.

MIKE:

It slowed my whole life down.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Mike

MELISSA:

You know I used to be able to, to jog and do a quick trot around the neighborhood. And you know, wave to all the dogs and the, and the kids that were out and, and have a great time. And then I was slower and slower, and then it was almost a crawl to get around to see everybody. So for a while I actually even eliminated that part of my life, and that wasn't, it wasn't any fun. It wasn’t any fun. I missed it.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Melissa

RODNEY:

I got to the point where I didn't do much fishing because it was too much of a chore. Woodworking was the same way. I- I- didn't enjoy it anymore because it was too hard.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Rodney

TEXT ONSCREEN: Wanting more

MIKE:

I've had several flare-ups and I'd be treated with steroids and antibiotics, and, it would, it would feel like you were hit with a bad flu stick, is what it felt like. I missed out on several activities when I'd have these flare-ups. With Susan, there were things that she went ahead and did and I just canceled out on.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

A flare-up (or exacerbation) is the worsening of COPD symptoms for several days or weeks that may require steroids, antibiotics, or hospital stays.

MELISSA:

They're hard and it feels like there's an anvil right here and it's very, very difficult to take a deep breath.

MIKE:

I wanted more from a COPD treatment...with TRELEGY it was one medicine that had all the medicines in it I needed.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

TRELEGY won’t replace a rescue inhaler.

MIKE:

I pick up my TRELEGY inhaler and use it once a day.

TEXT ONSCREEN: What 3 in 1 can do

DR. CORBRIDGE:

TRELEGY has two bronchodilators that will help you with the symptoms of COPD…

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Individual results may vary.

DR. CORBRIDGE:

…and the main one there being shortness of breath. And it has that third drug which is that anti-inflammatory,…

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Dr. Corbridge, Pulmonologist

DR. CORBRIDGE:

…which we know is well positioned to prevent those exacerbations that you're at risk for.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Dr. Corbridge is a physician and was a GSK employee at time of filming.

DR. CORBRIDGE:

And it's conveniently administered. One inhalation per day I think is helping our patients.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Individual results may vary. TRELEGY won’t replace a rescue inhaler.

SUSAN:

When Mike couldn’t help in the yard it really affected him and he became so apologetic. He always felt so bad and would apologize, “I’m so sorry I can’t help you out there.”

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Individual results may vary.

SUSAN:

And now that he is taking the TRELEGY he is able to get out there.

MIKE:

I’m more content.

SUSAN:

Content is a good word.

MIKE:

Yeah, I’m more content now because I’m not sitting on the sideline watching other people do stuff.

TEXT ONSCREEN: How TRELEGY works

DR. CORBRIDGE:

TRELEGY really is a first of its kind…

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Dr. Corbridge, Pulmonologist

DR. CORBRIDGE:

…that provides three of the important medications that we currently know work in patients with COPD.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Dr. Corbridge is a physician and was a GSK employee at time of filming.

DR. CORBRIDGE:

So it has two bronchodilators.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

TRELEGY won’t replace a rescue inhaler.

DR. CORBRIDGE:

They're called LAMAs and LABAs. These will open up the airway to improve symptoms, and the main one there being shortness of breath. And it has that anti-inflammatory medication…

TEXT ONSCREEN:

LABA opens your airways. LAMA keeps them open. ICS reduces inflammation.

DR. CORBRIDGE:

…that really is positioned to cut down on risk for exacerbations, and it's conveniently administered. One puff, once a day.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

TRELEGY won’t replace a rescue inhaler.

TEXT ONSCREEN: Finding out about TRELEGY

MIKE:

Well, I went to the doctor and I actually felt like I was losing ground. And I had been reading a magazine, and there was another medicine to go along with what I was taking.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Real patients who were taking TRELEGY at the time of filming and one of their caregivers. GSK paid them for their time and expenses for sharing their unique experiences. Individual results may vary.

MIKE:

And I asked her, I said, “Would this help me?” And she said, “You know we can try that,” and she actually walked out of the room and came back in. She said, “You know what, wait a minute, let's try you on TRELEGY."

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Mike

MELISSA:

I had seen it on television about this drug TRELEGY. When I got to my doctor, I noticed there’s a poster up on his wall with the inhaler...

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Melissa

MELISSA:

...and I said, “Now how about this stuff?” And at the same time, he said to me, “I think I want you to try this,” and we’re both pointing at it. And, I’m so glad he did because I feel better.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Individual results may vary.

TEXT ONSCREEN: Noticing the results

DIANE:

With the right medication, you can still get out there.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Diane

Individual results may vary.

DIANE:

I do spend time with my grandkids now. If they want to go to the park, if they want to go somewhere, I can take them.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Individual results may vary.

RODNEY:

We’ve got plans now more so than ever of traveling a little bit.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Rodney

Individual results may vary.

MELISSA: Now that I’m on TRELEGY, I’ve noticed a difference in my breathing. Overall, I noticed that I’m feeling like I can go a little bit longer. And for me that’s a good thing. I can maybe dance a little bit longer. That would be great, too.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

TEXT ONSCREEN: But you can do something about your COPD

DR. CORBRIDGE:

So there are misconceptions about COPD. In days past, we used to think, or your patients used to think, "There's nothing I can do about this.”

We can treat it. And we can make patients feel better.

TEXT ONSCREEN:

Dr. Corbridge is a physician and was a GSK employee at time of filming.

TEXT ONSCREEN: Doing less is not “doing fine”

DR. CORBRIDGE:

We know that patients underreport their symptoms. This is common in COPD. So if you ask a patient in a clinic visit, "How are you?" they often say, "Well, I'm doing fine." That may be because they have stopped doing things, have become more sedentary, stopped climbing stairs, and that mitigates that symptom of breathlessness.

TEXT ONSCREEN: You deserve to feel better

MELISSA:

If you're feeling down at yourself because you think you've brought this on yourself, you’re feeling disgusted, or terrified that “Oh my gosh! I deserve this”– you don't deserve it, nobody deserves it. But now, it's time to get with the program and go see your doctor and get on a medicine.

MIKE:

I know that I made some mistakes in my health earlier, but it's up to you to take control of your life and move on from there. Just because you did this earlier in your life doesn't mean that that defines who you are, you know–you have a chance to do something else now.
