Abstract

The main goal of asthma management – asthma control - is achieved by improving both current clinical control and reducing the future risk of asthma exacerbations. Clinical trials show that asthma control is significantly improved by budesonide/formoterol maintenance and reliever therapy in adults with moderate to severe asthma compared with conventional therapies consisting of an ICS or ICS/LABA plus SABA for relief.
