Does Asthma Medication Work?

Asthma is a chronic condition, meaning it requires ongoing management rather than a one-time treatment. Prescription asthma medications play a critical role in reducing symptoms, preventing flare-ups, and improving overall lung function.

How Prescription Treatments Help

• - Control inflammation by reducing swelling in the airways, making it easier to breathe
• - Prevent flare-ups with long-term asthma control medications that minimise symptoms
• - Provide quick relief with certain medications designed for immediate symptom management

Why Doctor-Prescribed Medications Are Important

• - Tailored to your condition based on a health practitioner’s assessment
• - More effective than over-the-counter options, as prescription treatments are specifically designed for asthma management
• - Regular check-ins ensure safety, allowing for treatment adjustments if needed

If asthma is interfering with your daily activities, seeking professional medical advice is the best step towards long-term symptom control.
