1 Nebulized budesonide has been used successfully to treat acute asthma exacerbation, and we hypothesized that it could also be effective for exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Budesonide COPD Homo sapiens
2 Both budesonide and prednisolone improved airflow in COPD patients with acute exacerbations when compared with placebo. Budesonide COPD Homo sapiens
3 Nebulized budesonide may be an alternative to oral prednisolone in the treatment of nonacidotic exacerbations of COPD but further studies should be done to evaluate its long-term impact on clinical outcomes after an initial episode of COPD exacerbation. Budesonide COPD Homo sapiens
