Abstract

This systematic review focuses on examining the
treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD) and preventing exacerbations. Despite the
pharmacological interventions available, chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not curable.
The goal of treatment in chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD) patients is more focused on providing
relief of symptoms such as dyspnea and shortness of
breath. The purpose is to review the efficacy of daily
Statin use in patients with newly diagnosed chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
