Asthma Research Insight
Our Asthma Management Coach Leandra Tonweber, PA-C, AE-C, recently shared her perspective to Healio.com about a recent study showing frequent asthma attacks can lead to higher corticosteroid doses. Leandra says the use of asthma self-management programs can help patients get a better understanding of their asthma, treatments, and correct medication use.
