Maintenance Treatment

Maintenance treatment is ongoing medical care implemented after initial therapy to help keep a health condition under control. Its goal is to prevent a relapse or worsening of symptoms by continuously managing the condition, often through daily medications, lifestyle adjustments, or regular check-ups. For example, someone with a chronic illness like asthma might use daily inhalers to maintain clear airways, even when they feel well. Maintenance treatment ensures stability and reduces the risk of future complications, allowing individuals to maintain their quality of life with steady, consistent management of their health.
