Frequently Asked Questions
How is asthma management different from Asthma Care?
This page focuses on reviewing recurring symptoms and an existing plan over time. Asthma Care describes a starting conversation about asthma-related concerns within primary care; the appropriate visit depends on what you need.
Should I bring my inhalers to a visit?
If available, bring the devices you use. Your provider can discuss technique and help clarify the role of each prescribed medicine.
What is an asthma action plan?
It is individualized guidance about everyday treatment and what to do when symptoms change. Ask your clinician about a plan that fits your care.
What if I need my reliever inhaler more often?
Follow your action plan and contact your clinician to discuss the change. Frequent symptoms may mean your care needs review.
Can asthma affect me even between attacks?
Yes. Nighttime symptoms, activity limits or frequent reliever use can be important even if you are not having an acute attack during the visit.
When is breathing trouble an emergency?
Severe breathing difficulty, difficulty speaking because of breathlessness, confusion or blue lips needs emergency care. Do not wait for a routine clinic appointment.
