Riyadh, Saudi Arabia — September 24, 2024,&nbsp;EVA Pharma announces initial implementation of its strategies to support Asthma and COPD patients in Saudi Arabia. This represents a significant step in addressing the local needs of patients in the region and reinforces EVA Pharma's dedication to providing sustainable and affordable healthcare solutions.
The sustainable availability of inhalation treatments marks a significant milestone in local healthcare. With the development taking place at EVA Pharma's Research &amp; Development center, this initiative showcases the company's commitment to utilizing cutting-edge innovation to provide affordable and sustainable medicines. EVA Pharma's team of scientists invested five years in research, received specialized training at Kiel University in Germany, and introduced technology not previously available in the Middle East, including the utilization of an artificial lung particle that ensures optimal particle size distribution of the drug to the target sites of the respiratory airway. The expertise and technological advancements are set to be localized at EVA Pharma’s <a href="https://www.evapharma.com/en-SA/newsroom/eva-pharma-announces-groundbreaking-of-its-research-manufacturing-complex-in-sudair-and-unveils-revolutionary-partnership-with-the-ministry-of-investment-58">Research &amp; Manufacturing Complex in Sudair, Saudi Arabia</a>, further empowering diverse regional healthcare capabilities.
Riad Armanious, CEO of EVA Pharma, said: "As we laid the cornerstone for the first-of-its-kind research and manufacturing cluster in the Kingdom, we made a promise to make Saudi patients at the heart of our mission. Through introducing cutting-edge treatments and advancing the construction of our industrial complex in Sudair, we are upholding our commitment to ensure sustainable access to innovative healthcare solutions and empower the Kingdom's longevity.”
To date, EVA Pharma’s Asthma and COPD inhalation solutions have received global accreditation with approval from regulatory agencies in the United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Austria, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Czech, Slovakia, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Portugal, Denmark, Finland, France, Salvador, Egypt, Libya.
Dr. Mohamed Ghobain, King Abdulaziz Medical City Riyadh, and the Saudi Thoracic Society board member said: "While there is a considerable increase of Asthma and COPD awareness among healthcare workers, there is a lack of public awareness regarding the burden of the disease. If you experience shortness of breath or cough, especially if you are a smoker, it is crucial not to ignore it and seek medical attention promptly to avoid potential complications. Early detection of Asthma and COPD is vital for effective treatment as it can significantly improve outcomes for patients in the early stages of the disease."
COPD is a prevalent lung disease that causes restricted airflow and breathing problems. The primary risk factor for the disease is smoking cigarettes or any tobacco products. In the Middle East and Saudi Arabia, environmental factors such as exposure to desert dust and sand, as well as smoke from burning wood, are also known risk factors that significantly contribute to an increased risk of COPD. Other factors include exposure to second-hand smoke, air pollution, childhood respiratory infections, and a family history of asthma. 
Dr. Mohamed Zeitouni, Fellow of the College of Chest Physicians, Consultant Pulmonary Medicine in Riyadh said: "Lifestyle management is crucial for those diagnosed with Asthma and COPD. This involves quitting smoking, avoiding air pollution, maintaining a nutritious diet, and keeping up with annual vaccinations for influenza and COVID-19 to prevent infections. Since most Asthma and COPD patients are older, treatment accessibility is critical, starting with the inhalation device itself. Providing a device that is easy to use increases its accessibility for patients. 
Aligning seamlessly with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 by enhancing the healthcare sector, promoting local investments, and ensuring the availability of high-quality, affordable medical treatments, EVA Pharma reinforces its role as a key player in the Kingdom's healthcare landscape.&nbsp;
