Abstract:
Respiratory tract infections are common within the general population and present a significant burden on healthcare systems, particularly in people with predisposing conditions such as chronic respiratory diseases. While pharmacological interventions remain a cornerstone of treatment, nonpharmacological strategies play a complementary role in both management and prevention of these conditions. These approaches encompass a broad range of measures, including adequate nutrition and hydration, preventive practices, stress reduction, and respiratory physiotherapy. This review aims at providing a comprehensive overview of these non-strictly pharmacological strategies of support and prevention to be adopted in the care of patients with respiratory conditions.
