asthma treatments
Asthma treatments aim to manage and prevent asthma symptoms like wheezing and shortness of breath. They typically involve two main types of medications: **relievers**, which quickly open airways during an asthma attack, and **preventers**, which are taken regularly to reduce inflammation and prevent attacks. Common relievers include albuterol inhalers, while preventers often include corticosteroids in inhalers. People with asthma also benefit from avoiding triggers, such as allergens or pollutants, and working with healthcare providers to create a personalized asthma management plan. Regular monitoring of symptoms is important to ensure effective control of the condition.
