13 What do the new guidelines recommend?
14 STRONG VS. CONDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS Raghu G et al. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2015:192(2):
15 ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT 2015 IPF GUIDELINES: RECOMMENDED FOR USE IN IPF STRONG Recommendation CONDITIONAL Recommendation Nintedanib Pirfenidone Antacid therapy Raghu G et al. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2015:192(2):

Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2015:192(2):
17 WHAT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY THESE GUIDELINES? Treatment recommendations for types of PF other than IPF Role of lung transplantation Treatment of pulmonary hypertension in folks with IPF Recommendations for different diagnostic approaches Role of ILD centers in the management of patients with PF
18 Q&A I am taking one of the medications that has a recommendation against use designation in the new guidelines. What should I do? Is pirfenidone available for use as an inhaled medicine? Will this help eliminate some of the side effects? I take anticoagulant medication for a different medical problem. Should I stop taking this?
19 Q&A There were no strong recommendations FOR any treatment. Does this mean that I shouldn t accept any treatments for my IPF? I saw that the guidelines addressed Triple therapy. What about prednisone without azathioprine or NAC?
