A member asked:
Mrs. puji (40 y.o). she suffered asthma moderate persistent. doc, what kind of bronchodilator and corticosteroid she should take? thanks
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to doctor: How do you find out she has moderate persistent asthma? If indeed it is, she will likely need a controller drug with an inhaled steroid +/- a long-acting bronchodilator or Singulair (montelukast). Since every asthma case is different, this should be monitored by your doctor and not by self-treatment.
