RE: NEW DRUG COMBO MAY ELIMINATE CPAP
I think the biggest thing where the pill combo would be most useful is a scenario such as Sleeprider mentioned. An alternate to carrying the CPAP when you camp or travel. I'd think if kept to a short period of time, maybe this may be acceptable. But, for most hosers who have higher untreated AHI this likely can't be counted as a permanent substitute.

RE: NEW DRUG COMBO MAY ELIMINATE CPAP
I see a future with more effective drug therapy. The article said this is the first combination of drugs that had an impact, a hint for other combinations that may work in the future, but for now I see a yes for some, and a no for most people on the forum.
