Asthma patients, please follow the “three principles” to treat the disease

        Asthma is a common respiratory disease that poses a serious risk to human health and is also a very persistent and chronic disease with frequent recurrent attacks. Current national and international guidelines require that asthma patients be treated consistently and also recommend that medication be administered by inhalation whenever possible to minimize the side effects of long-term use.        The goal of long-term asthma treatment is to achieve and maintain asthma control. It is not possible to cure asthma in the short term with one drug or one therapy. During an acute asthma attack, patients suffer from breath-holding and breathing difficulties and want the doctor to relieve their pain quickly, so they actively cooperate when receiving treatment. And once the condition is in remission, they fail to adhere to the treatment or even stop it completely. It is important to know that the treatment of asthma is a long-term project. Only by paying attention to the usual prevention and treatment can we greatly reduce the number of acute attacks, alleviate the pain, reduce the risk of death and lower medical expenses.        Standardization Guidelines on asthma treatment have long been developed worldwide, and are constantly updated and improved. China has also developed asthma prevention and treatment guidelines. As long as you follow the medical advice and receive standardized treatment according to the authoritative asthma prevention and treatment guidelines, you can better control your asthma and patients can live, work and study like normal people.        Individualization What medications to use in long-term treatment, how to adjust them when they are not effective, when to increase the dosage, when to decrease the dosage, and other details of individualization are actually an important part of asthma treatment. Asthma medications include inhaled hormones, long-acting and short-acting bronchodilators, theophyllines, and leukotriene modulators. The use of a combination of drugs such as salmeterol ticarbazone and budesonide formoterol is currently preferred for the treatment of asthma, and most patients can benefit from them. To achieve asthma control, patients should choose the appropriate combination of medications, dose of medications and adjust the content of treatment at different stages under the guidance of doctors according to their specific conditions.
