Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by inflamed airways that can become narrowed, making it difficult to breathe. Asthma medications are designed to manage and control asthma symptoms effectively. There are two primary categories of asthma medications : quick-relief (rescue) medications and long-term control medications. Quick-relief medications, such as short-acting beta-agonists, provide rapid relief during asthma attacks. Long-term control medications, including inhaled corticosteroids and leukotriene modifiers, help manage the condition over time.
