Doctor of Philosophy / Asthma can be a chronic disorder requiring regular medications if the symptoms are persistent. The regimen is often complex, involving a number of drugs and a variety or routes of administration. Although drug therapy may not alter the natural history of asthma it can improve lung function enabling those with asthma to lead as near a normal life as possible. Thus medication compliance is an important factor in the managemnt of asthma.
