About COPD

COPD is a chronic obstruction of the airways which affects 210 million people worldwide[1] and is projected to be the third leading cause of death by 2020[2].  It is a progressive lung disease with symptoms including chronic bronchitis and/or emphysema, which slowly progresses and eventually leads to a largely irreversible loss of lung function.  While there is no cure, bronchodilators such as LAMAs and LABAs make breathing easier by enlarging the patient's airways, and are recognised in international guidelines as an integral part of the treatment for COPD.
