Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis – A preventive approach

 

About the study commissioned by Diex Recherche:

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive lung disease that causes scarring of the tissues in the lungs, gradually reducing their ability to function effectively. Acting early is essential to slow its impact.

Although there is no cure, our study explores the effectiveness of an innovative drug to slow the progression of the disease and promote a better quality of life.

By joining our study, you may see an improvement in your breathing capacity, a reduction in persistent cough, and a reduction in fatigue related to this condition.
