摘要
Methods: An economic analysis was performed to compare the cost effectiveness of a new formulation combining salmeterol 50μg and fluticasone propionate 500μg in a multidose dry powder (Diskus™) inhaler (n = 167) with that of fluticasone propionate (FP) 500μg (n = 165) also delivered via the Diskus™ in patients with corticosteroid-dependent asthma. Clinical data were obtained from a recent European multicentre trial; the economic analysis adopted a Swedish healthcare perspective.
