COPD involves two respiratory problems, i.e. chronic bronchitis and emphysema. These two conditions cause a gradual obstruction of the respiratory tract. Afflicted individuals may suffer from either of the two illnesses or both at the same time.

Sufferers may exhibit one or several of the following symptoms:

•Shortness of breath•Chronic cough•Secretions (mucus)

Chronic bronchitis is characterized by permanent bronchial inflamma-tion and excessive production of mucus, which hampers the flow of air to the lungs.

Emphysema affects the alveoli of the lungs. It causes dilation of the alveoli and destruction of the alveolar walls. The air remains trapped in the damaged alveoli, thus making it difficult to breathe. Gaseous exchanges are also affected by the destruction of the alveolar tissue.

CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE (COPD)

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

EMPHYSEMACHRONIC BRONCHITIS

INHALATION CHAMBER

Did you know that inhalers used without an inhalation chamber propel only 10% of the medication into the lungs and that almost 80% of the medication is simply deposited in the mouth? All inhalers should be used with an inhalation chamber. As a result, you will:•Optimize the administration of the drug (better deposition, better synchronization and simpler technique);•Reduce the side effects of certain drugs.
