Myth 1: Gullible treatment with prescriptions. Many asthma patients choose to undergo systematic and standardized treatment under the guidance of their doctors, but there are also some patients who, due to poor long-term treatment results, go to try some “prescription” treatment. The result of listening to the so-called treatment experience of others is often not only to spend money but also to make the disease more serious. Misconception 2: Stopping as soon as you see good results. Some patients decide to stop the medication on their own after receiving treatment and their condition has improved slightly or for other reasons. But asthma treatment process can not arbitrarily stop or reduce the drug, otherwise it is easy to have a relapse of asthma. Myth 3: Worrying about the side effects of glucocorticosteroids and being reluctant to use any dosage of glucocorticosteroids. Many patients refuse to use any form of glucocorticosteroids because they are afraid of the side effects of systemic glucocorticosteroids. It is true that a series of side effects can occur when glucocorticosteroids are used systemically for a long time, such as full moon face, buffalo back, decreased resistance, high blood pressure, diabetes and other side effects, which is why we do not allow long-term systemic use of glucocorticosteroids for asthma treatment now. However, glucocorticoid inhalation therapy is a very safe treatment method that can largely avoid the side effects of systemic glucocorticoids. Of course, standardized inhalation therapy is the key to good efficacy. Patients should use the inhalation device correctly under the guidance of a specialist, and they should rinse their mouths after inhalation therapy to reduce the residue of drugs in the mouth and further avoid the side effects of glucocorticosteroids. Myth 4: Treating anti-infection as anti-inflammatory treatment. Anti-inflammation and what we people call anti-infection are two different concepts; anti-infection treatment refers to the use of anti-microbial drugs to target certain specific pathogens in order to clear them and cure infectious diseases. In contrast, the inflammation of asthma is a non-specific inflammation and glucocorticoids are by far the strongest anti-inflammatory drugs. Only acute attacks of asthma due to infection require anti-infective treatment. Myth 5: Ignore pulmonary function tests. In addition to insisting on medication, patients with bronchial asthma should also have their lung function checked regularly to understand how it is doing in case it causes an acute attack. Pulmonary function should also be checked regularly after treatment to prevent recurrence. Myth 6: Add medication on your own when symptoms worsen. Patients are not advised to change medication or adjust the dose on their own when their condition changes. For example, some bronchodilators have adverse reactions and may cause discomfort such as nausea, vomiting and heartburn.
