Real-world comparative effectiveness of three single-inhaler dual bronchodilators for the treatment of COPD

Conclusion
In a real-world setting of COPD treatment, the three dual bronchodilator combinations were similarly effective on the risk of a severe exacerbation of COPD. However, the VIL–UME and IND–GLY combinations may confer slightly superior effectiveness than OLO–TIO on the risk of moderate or severe exacerbation. The potential lower mortality with VIL–UME warrants further investigation.
