Abstract

Researchers from the University of Antioquia have conducted a study on the cost-effectiveness of tiotropium as an add-on therapy for patients with severe asthma. The study found that tiotropium was cost-effective when added to usual care for patients who remained uncontrolled despite treatment with inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting bronchodilators. The findings suggest that tiotropium could be a valuable addition to clinical practice guidelines and should be further validated in other middle-income countries. The study was published in the journal Cost Effectiveness and Resource Allocation. [Extracted from the article]
