Use of dry powder inhalers in acute exacerbations of asthma and COPD
Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 06/11/09
Selroos O et al. - This review found that administration of fast-acting bronchodilators via DPIs, the majority of which were Turbuhaler, is effective during an asthma or COPD worsening. This literature review finds that DPIs function in patients with acute asthma or COPD equally well as established therapies with other inhaler devices. Patients can therefore rely upon DPIs in the same way that they rely upon other inhaler devices.
