Question

Why inhalation therapy is preferred in bronchial asthma?

Answer 1

Bronchial asthma (BA) is one of the commonest respiratory disorders, which is likely to keep the physician overworked in the coming century as well. With times, our understanding of Asthma has changed substantially from a reversible airway disease to a chronic inflammatory disorder with variable airflow limitation. Similarly, treatment modalities in bronchial asthma have improved substantially from a ‘a cup of tea’ to drugs delivered in an aerosolized form.
