A patient has been diagnosed with COPD. Using both mMRC and CAT, the nurse practitioner has determined that the patient falls into GOLD group B. The nurse practitioner will prescribe or ensure the patient is taking:

ICS-LABA, such as budesonide/formoterol (Symbicort)

LAMA plus SABA as needed, such as aclidinium (Trudoza) plus albuterol (ProAir)

ICS-LAMA-LABA plus SABA as needed, such as fluticasone/umeclidinium/vilanterol (Trelegy)

LAMA-LABA combination plus SABA as needed, such as umeclidinium/vilanterol (Arono) plus albuterol (Proair)
