Hi,

COPD is a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is progressive lung disease.

Starting of early treatment is very beneficial to prevent delayed complications like hypertension, heart diseases etc. So in my opinion, you should definitely start treatment for COPD and hypertension as soon as possible.

Amongst the supplements mentioned, NAC (N-acetylcysteine) is proven beneficial in COPD.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
