Uncontrolled asthma: a retrospective cohort study in Japanese patients newly prescribed with medium-/high-dose ICS/LABA
Abstract Many asthma patients remain uncontrolled despite guideline-based therapies. We examined real-life asthma control in Japanese patients prescribed with inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β2-agonist (ICS/LABA). Patients (≥12 years) with ≥2 asthma diagnoses, newly initiated on medium-/high-dose...

We examined real-life asthma control in Japanese patients prescribed with inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β2-agonist (ICS/LABA).
