A member asked:

I have an asthmatic productive cough, with little to no wheezing. cough has lasted more than 1 week, despite using symbacort. when should i worry if ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cough=poor control: Successful asthma control can be achieved when you find a doc you can work with, learn the treatments & monitoring devices & develop a plan. This plan would include a way to tell if your control is getting better or worse (peak flow meter,symptom chart).It would include a plan for daily meds & when to use episodic rescue meds. Rescue meds are specifically used to stop an attack.
