<b>Give long-acting inhaled BD combo (LABA+LAMA) plus short-acting rescue BD; inhaled is preferred vs. oral [A]. Add ICS if blood eos ≥300. LABA+ICS not recommended.</b> LABAs and LAMAs improve dyspnea, reduce exac rate [A]. LAMAs reduce exac [A]and hospitalizations [B]more than LABAs; combos more effective than mono-tx [B]. Tailor choice of inhaler to pt’s ability and preference. Single-inhaler tx may be more effective/convenient than multiple inhalers and improves compliance.
