COPD is a lung disease that blocks airflow and makes breathing difficult. In most cases, the lung damage that leads to COPD is caused by cigarette smoking.
But other irritants can cause COPD, too, including cigar or pipe smoke, air pollution and certain occupational exposures. In some cases, COPD results from a genetic disorder that causes low levels of a protective protein called alphaantitrypsin. Asthma occurs when the airways in the lungs bronchial tubes become inflamed and constricted. This may be triggered by allergies or viral infections. During an asthma attack, the airways thicken due to inflammation, the muscles of the bronchial walls tighten, and the airways produce extra mucus that increases obstruction.
A number of medications help control symptoms of COPD and asthma. Bronchodilators relax the muscles around your airways to make breathing easier and relieve coughing and shortness of breath. It may seem odd to take two drugs that do almost the same thing.
