Study Arms (1)
Cough IPF
Male and female with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and cough and about to start on Pirfenidone according to regular practice will be asked to wear a cough monitor 24 hours before starting Pirfenidone and twice 24 hours while using Pirfenidone. Patients will also be asked to fill in questionnaires about quality of life and cough.
Interventions
questionnaires about cough and quality of life
