Does atorvastatin combined with azithromycin improve lung function and right heart function in COPD patients with concomitant pulmonary hypertension?
Atorvastatin combined with azithromycin may improve lung and right heart function in COPD patients with pulmonary hypertension, though prospective trials are needed to confirm these findings.
This retrospective study suggests potential associations between combination therapy with atorvastatin and azithromycin and improvements in functional outcomes in COPD patients with concomitant PH. These findings warrant prospective validation in randomized controlled trials.
