• Experiences with Alyftrek

    Posted by William on May 14, 2025 at 1:00 pm

    Since January, I’ve been taking the new modulator Alyftrek, and, for the most part, I would say it’s been going well. I’ve definitely experienced “the purge” and other side effects such as flu-like symptoms.

    What has your experience on Alyftrek been like? Would you say it’s working for you? If not, why?

    I’ve been on Alyftrek for a few months now too. The first couple of weeks were rough, major purge and I felt achy all over. But after that settled down, I started noticing some real benefits. Breathing’s easier and I’ve had fewer exacerbations. It’s not perfect, but definitely feels like a step in the right direction. Curious to see long-term results.

      I had those same results the first few months, too! How are you doing now?

    Started Alyftrek in early March, and the first few weeks were rough, massive purge, low energy, and those weird flu-like symptoms. But once that passed, I noticed a real difference in daily breathing and fatigue levels. Everyone’s response is so different, though, so I’m trying to stay patient with the ups and downs.

    That’s wonderful news, congratulations to you! I hope Alyftrek therapy will provide consistent relief and help to minimize exacerbations and all of the hard and daunting symptoms of CF.

      Thank you! It’s definitely been a lot sometimes, however the side effects have mostly subsided and gotten better!

    Say, what is “the purge”? Glad to see that after that, folks are getting benefits. My CF team suggested -back in April – I might want to try it, but I’ve just been ruminating on it. My pulmonary sarcoidosis is still what’s giving me a gruesome bad time. I just changed to a different (large) care center, so first I want to see what that “sarc” group might come up with. -jeanne-
