Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim is an antibiotic, used to treat various types of infections.

If his doctor things some type of bacteria/infection is affecting, worsening, or causing his COPD, then it is very important to properly treat it.

He really should follow his doctor's instructions.

Have you tried just talking to him about it?

The primary risk factor for COPD is chronic tobacco smoking. In the United States, 80 to 90% of cases of COPD are due to smoking. OH WELL. Let me guess he is in the 10-20% of non-smokers. Smokers are a reason for escalating health care in this country. Outlaw smoking and grandfather those who smoke in, it will take about 40-60 years. but there will be no more smoking or second hand smoke.
