All Wales COPD management and prescribing guideline

Guideline updated to encourage consideration of the decarbonisation agenda of NHS Wales, including a recommendation to preferentially prescribe Dry Powder Inhalers rather than Metered Dose Inhalers; newly available inhaler options have also been incorporated where appropriate.

SPS commentary:

The All Wales adult asthma management and prescribing guideline has also been updated accordingly.
