Wondering What Inhalers Have Been Prescribed For Early COPD.
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

I keep reading to get diagonized early and start treatment but have only been ordered ventolin as needed. I need inhalers to slow this down . Appreciate your comments. Stay safe😷

Current best practice is to use one of the combination meds that use a LABA with a LAMA: a long acting beta agonist with a long acting muscarinic agent. The are several available. That would be a maintenance inhaler and you'd usually have a rescue inhaler in addition. like the ventolin you have already.

I have copd stage 3/4 and all i have been prescribed is Ventolin and Symbicort. I have tried almost every other inhaled available but these two do the best for me. Apparently these are as good as it gets
