Can an herbal granule speed up COPD recovery? new study investigates

This study looks at whether a traditional Chinese medicine called Guben Kechuan Granules can help people with COPD recover faster after a sudden worsening of symptoms. About 126 patients will receive either standard care or standard care plus the granules, and their lung function, breathing, and quality of life will be tracked for 12 weeks. The goal is to see if the granules reduce inflammation and improve recovery, but this is not a cure—COPD still requires ongoing management.
