Refresh your knowledge of Asthma Management and be prepared for the 24-25 school year. SMART therapy is for patients with moderate to severe asthma who need a combination treatment. This combined treatment consists of an inhaled corticosteroid and an inhaled long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA). Under asthma guidelines, SMART therapy is recommended for people with moderate to severe asthma, including children ages 5 and older. It is considered an easier and patient friendly treatment plan to follow. In this webinar, learn about SMART therapy and other patient friendly asthma management strategies.
