Can Stopping Symbicort Cause Copd To Worsen

My father was in rehab and he has copd and they did not give him his tudorza at all and only gave him his symbicort 2 times. He is home now and his oxygen level is dropping more. Could not taking his inhalers cause his copd to worsen?

There is a chance that it could, though there is also a chance that it has worsened on its own, due to the nature of the condition, according to the NIH.

Why didn't they give him his inhalers? Is he back on them, now?

Is he on any other medications?
