Misoprostol is already an approved drug with known side effects other drugs are used for crossover treatments they weren't originally developed for I'm definitely going to ask my p doc at my next visit

I am too but the problem I see is it is not approved for COPD so like dupxient before its approval for COPD my insurance would not cover it. Nor did my COPD qualify for its use. I’ve already printed out that study to let my pulmonologist take a look. Please let us know what your pulmonologist says taipan.

I’m going to also see what my pulmonologist says

But I’ve already printed out the article to bring to my doc on the 12th. Pls let us know what your do. Says jamecline and I’ll do the same.
