Good clinicians know that hand-held
nebulizer treatments with aerosolized medications are not
for everyone.
But, did you know that
- Many patients are given MDI's for the management of
their symptoms of COPD and asthma without proper training?
- MDI technique requires a patient to coordinate inhalation of a medication traveling at approximately 90 miles per hour?
- As many as 6 out of 10 elderly patients are not able to perform the technique required by MDI's?
- Many patients are on multiple MDI's to manage their pulmonary disease, but are not compliant with the prescribed program?
- Less than optimal technique with MDI's may cause you
to experience incomplete treatment of your symptoms with
breakthrough wheezing and unexpected visits to the physician
or emergency room?
- Medicare does not cover MDI's and you must pay for them out-of
pocket?
There is a better way to be certain that you are receiving the
best possible treatment for your disease . Let PRO2
Respiratory Services Pharmacy make it easier for you to
follow your prescribed therapy.
Why compound respiratory medications? Because the symptoms associated with respiratory disease may differ from patient to patient, the optimal treatment may not be the same for each patient.
No two patients are alike, your medications shouldn't
be either. Our pharmacist can customize nebulizer medications
to maximize your treatments, decrease treatment time and
improve your compliance with your prescribed medication
program.
The right combination of medications can make all the difference in the treatment of your pulmonary disease. Call to speak directly with our pharmacist to see if compounded medications might be right for you.
