Asthma and COPD Treatments
Asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) are respiratory conditions that require effective management. Treatments often include inhalers, which deliver medication directly to the lungs. These can be bronchodilators that relax airway muscles or corticosteroids that reduce inflammation.
In addition to inhalers, patients may use nebulizers for easier medication delivery, especially during severe symptoms. Lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking and avoiding allergens, are also crucial. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider help monitor the conditions and adjust treatments as needed for optimal control.
