  • Report Highlights
    Although a direct link between the type of device and level of disease control has never been proven, the latter is possibly indirectly influenced by the respective device's ease of use, its airflow resistance and the patient's device preferences.

    There are still opportunities in the asthma/COPD market to gain market share by differentiating with an improved inhaler device. One of such strategies would be to introduce a product line of different molecules in the same device model in order to give physicians the opportunity to minimize the scope for error on the patient side.

    Inhaled drugs are increasingly being developed for systemic use in non-pulmonary diseases. Reasons for this include improved patient acceptance and compliance and a faster onset of action. However, the commercial failure of Pfizer's inhaled insulin illustrates the difficulties in striking the right balance.
