Asthma medicines are crucial for managing asthma, a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to difficulty breathing, wheezing, and coughing. These medications aim to control symptoms, reduce airway inflammation, and prevent asthma attacks, thereby improving the quality of life for individuals with asthma. They are typically categorized into two main types: long-term control medications and quick-relief (rescue) medications. Long-term control medications, such as inhaled corticosteroids and leukotriene modifiers, are used to reduce inflammation and prevent symptoms over time.
