PEP buddy is a small, hands-free device that helps improve breathing in people with COPD and other lung diseases. PEP Buddy works by 1) providing a gentle back pressure when you breathe out, which helps air tubes to stay open, 2) it slows down the breathing rate, 3) prolongs the exhalation, 4) helps you focus on breathing.
Clinical studies have shown PEP buddy to be effective and easy-to-use. 3 out of 4 people (72%) have a significant improvement in their breathing and quality of life. 1 out of 3 (36%) have better oxygen levels when using PEP buddy.

This was very good. I don’t smoke, never have, and was diagnosed with stage 3 COPD…. The reg dr I had before this, always just gave me Prednisone & antibiotic maybe twice a month for 2 years. I had a constant horrible cough. That dr never had my lungs looked at or tested. So the diagnosis was a Shock to me, big shock. Now after this long, I’m Angry! I’m angry she missed it. I’m on oxygen and carry mobile oxy. Turns out I had asthma for years, all the pulmonologist told me, first & last visit? Was “well you don’t have asthma, you have COPD.” I didn’t even know what that stood for. She said nothing more. See, being this far along w it, I feel like I will die with it as w this, I have kidney disease & a heart valve leak. I didn’t know ANY of this til all the tests were done 3 years ago. I Am angry it’s me. My son had very bad asthma from age 1 to 25 I think. Nebulizer 3x a day; poor little kid. Will He too possibly get copd? I live alone, my husband passed 20 yrs ago. So I’m sad and angry. Sorry. Thx for listening.
