Steroid-Resistant (Severe) Asthma
Steroid-resistant severe asthma is a type of asthma that does not improve significantly with standard steroid medications, which are commonly used to reduce inflammation in the airways. People with this condition experience frequent and severe asthma attacks, leading to difficulty breathing and limitations in daily activities. This form of asthma is often more complex and may require specialized treatments, such as biologic therapies or stronger medications, to manage symptoms effectively. It can significantly impact a person's quality of life, necessitating a comprehensive approach to treatment and care.
