How many days does a course of Roflumilast tablets last?

Roflumilast is used in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) associated with chronic bronchitis and a history of exacerbations to reduce the risk of COPD exacerbations. COPD patients take 500 micrograms (μg) once a day, which can be taken with or without food. Roflumilast is a prescription drug and must be prescribed by a doctor according to the condition, including usage, dosage, medication time, etc. Patients may need to take roflumilast for several weeks before it starts to take effect. Roflumilast requires long-term medication, and there is no specific course of treatment. However, how long the patient can take it needs to be determined based on the doctor's diagnosis.
