As current MDIs contain hydrofluorocarbon propellants, it would be beneficial to find ways to reduce carbon emissions without compromising patient safety.
This lab study investigated a way to optimize the modelled lung dose per actuation while at the same time minimizing the carbon emissions from the MDI
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease, characterized by narrowing of the airways and excess mucus production. People with asthma typically suffer from chest tightness/pain, shortness of breath, and episodes of coughing and wheezing.
