Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease leads to the degradation of the respiratory system, which is manifested by increasing obturation, dyspnoea and unfavorably prognostic exacerbations. According to GOLD 2018 recommendations, treatment must decrease symptoms and reduce the risk of exacerbations. Most commonly, a combination of a long-acting anticholinergic drug and a drug from the long-acting β-receptor agonist group is now used. Due to the best activity, safety and the possibility of dosing with one inhaler, the combination of tiotropium improving airway patency with olodaterol, β2-agonist, reducing the risk of exacerbations is considered optimal. Efficacy and safety of the combination of both substances in one inhaler confirmed the results of one of the largest trials of drugs used in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease – TOVITO.
