While the disease is not reversible, treatments can slow further worsening. This may include the use of corticosteroids or immunosuppressive medication which may have an effect on the ability to receive a lung transplant if offered. If patients have difficulty breathing (hypoxemia) oxygen can be supplemented. Routine vaccinations are recommended for patients with chronic lung disease to prevent complications from secondary infections due to pneumonia and influenza. Transplant recipients are at risk for re-developing the disease, as<unk>  is a form of chronic rejection. Evaluation of interventions for its prevention relies on early detection of abnormal spirometry results or unusual decreases in repeated measurements.
