Abstract

A study of 151 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was conducted in order to assess the formation and effectiveness of the treatment of nicotine dependence in smokers with COPD. Ipratropium bromide was proposed as a therapy. Nicorette was used as a nicotine replacement therapy. As a result of the study, the proposed algorithm for the combined treatment of nicotine addiction and COPD was adapted for use in the treatment of various degrees of nicotine dependence and COPD severity in smokers in an outpatient setting.
