ICS plus LABA ‘improves lung function in preterm-born kids’
Combination treatment appears to target both functional and inflammatory processes, researchers say
Combining inhaled corticosteroids with long-acting beta agonists improves spirometry results in school-age children who were born prematurely, according to promising results from a UK study.
The combination treatment also led to favourable post-exercise bronchodilator response, the Cardiff University-led researchers say, but had no impact on exercise capacity.
