Advances in Combination Therapy for Asthma and COPD is a comprehensive review of the spectrum of agents currently available for treatment of asthma, COPD and other airway diseases and covers practical guidelines as well as challenges and complications in their use.
This volume provides specialists in respiratory medicine the most up to date information on the agents and discusses how they might be deployed in combination. Possible complications of combination therapy are explored, including unforeseen drug interactions and adverse patient reactions. This valuable reference discusses the complexity of determining correct dosages when the possibility of a synergistic cross-reaction between the drugs may mean that the effect of the drugs prescribed could be enhanced when administered in combination, compared with when they are prescribed alone.
Postgraduate and professional specialist physicians in pulmonology and allergy and workers in biomedical and pharmaceutical research can depend on this carefully crafted guide for authoritative information.
