\u201cWe followed the clinical trials closely which found that Ohtuvayre demonstrated both early and sustained improvements in lung function across a broad population of patients with COPD,\u201d said Amanda Berishaj, DirectRx VP of Clinical Services. \u201cWith our expertise in COPD, we are excited to be partnering with Verona Pharma on the launch on their novel and innovative therapy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ohtuvayre was approved by the FDA on June 26 and is now available for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adult patients. The new treatment is simple and effective, combining a bronchodilator and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory effects in one molecule. The treatment is delivered directly to the lungs through a standard jet nebulizer without the need for any complex hand-breath coordination.<\/p>\n
