Respiratory Resources

Welcome to the resource hub for respiratory conditions.

Here you will find disease state information in a variety of formats to help you manage, educate, and support patients with respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

These resources are provided to help healthcare providers stay up-to-date with current research and methods regarding the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases. Complex conditions such as severe asthma and COPD have a serious impact on patient quality of life, but available treatments can make a big difference.

The resources below include, but are not limited to:

  • Information on current treatments, including inhalation therapies such as bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS)
  • A video tutorial on how to use the Respimat® inhaler
  • Guidelines for physicians on the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) approaches to treatment
  • Key characteristics for differentiating between asthma and COPD
  • Resources on the etiology, diagnosis, and management of respiratory conditions
  • The impact of COVID-19 on treating patients with COPD, including guidance on air travel
  • Resources on smoking cessation for patients with COPD
