  1. Jan 14, 2022 · The evidence generated by pivotal RCTs supports the use of triple therapy in patients who present for the first time and have severe airway obstruction, are symptomatic, have had frequent moderate or severe exacerbations in the previous year, and have peripheral eosinophilia.

  2. Oct 28, 2020 · Finally, in order to optimize pharmacotherapy in stable COPD, we propose an algorithm on performing step-up of therapy from dual bronchodilation to triple therapy and step down from triple to double bronchodilation taking into account the extremely heterogeneous population of COPD patients.

  6. Feb 19, 2018 · 1. Introduction. Dual bronchodilation therapy is the cornerstone for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) [1]. Combining a long-acting β 2 adrenoceptor (β 2 -AR) agonist (LABA) with a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) in a fixed-dose combination (FDC) improves lung function, dyspnea, quality of life, and ...

  7. Oct 28, 2020 · In this report, we aimed to provide a review of the current knowledge on the importance of dual bronchodilation on COPD patients and to compare its use with triple therapy, by covering a wide spectrum of topics.
