No such thing: There is no such thing as "best medication". There are certain common medications such as beta blocker and steroid inhalers but it depends on your pulmonary function status and symptoms.Your doctor can go over what you need in your condition.

Emphysema: What? Emphysema is copd. There are several reasons to get copd, not just by smoking. But, unfortunately there is no 'best medication' for this. Your pulmonologist, i believe, is most likely giving you the best options available.
