ReplyDeleteFor the laymen and the uninitiated, what is COPD?
What is Nebuliser?
Thanks.
COPD stands for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In layman's terms it is "smoker's lungs" where sufferers present with cough, phlegm and shortness of breath. Nebulised medicine help relieve their symptoms.
