I'm sure I heard on the way to campus this morning on a podcast that the most severe type of asthma (and maybe others) often are treated with long acting B-agonists (in addition to oral and inhaled corticosteroids). I want to say it is type IV but I'm not sure on the classification system. I don't think it is appropriate to generalize asthma treatment - it should be broken down more in to the main types of asthma - each with different treatments (even when in a general Obsturctive lung disease article). Or, at least, something to this effect should be mentioned in the box if it is going to be red. Thoughts? [[User:Tom Kelly|Tom Kelly]] 11:20, 25 September 2008 (CDT) |
