We call on everyone to increase their efforts to ensure “Access to anti-inflammatory inhalers for everyone with asthma”, in all countries throughout the world. See www.ginasthma.org/reports

Doctors and allied health care professionals are called upon to ensure that all people with asthma, including most pre-school children with asthma, are prescribed evidence-based, essential, inhaled corticosteroid-containing medication. These should be prescribed in addition to, or in combination with, reliever medication, to prevent the continuing avoidable morbidity and mortality from asthma.

The short-acting bronchodilator relievers (salbutamol, albuterol, terbutaline, SABAs) only relieve the spasm and tightening of the muscles in the air passages but inhaled corticosteroid-containing medications prevent asthma attacks by treating the underlying inflammation that causes asthma. Inhaled corticosteroids are essential for treating and controlling asthma!

Asthma attacks involve obstruction of the air passages in the lungs which reduces the ability of the person to inhale life sustaining oxygen into the body. The airway obstruction is caused by spasm and tightening of the airway muscles, and inflammation which causes both swelling of the walls of the air passages and mucus or phlegm blocking the airways.

Asthma attacks cause great distress for sufferers, their families and their careers. Asthma attacks may result in hospital admission and, in some cases, death.
