Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Duolin is levosalbutamol and is quite effective for COPD and it prevents acute exacerbations. Combivent is tiotropium and it is considered as a better choice and it more suitable for long term use. However you can use duolin and once the duolin is over switch to combivent.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
