Overview / Abstract: |
Severe asthma is thought to affect about 5% to 10% of the total population of patients with asthma. The detrimental consequences of uncontrolled severe asthma are significant, leading to serious exacerbations, deterioration of lung function, and pronounced impact on quality of life. The emergence of biologic therapies has revolutionized the treatment of severe asthma. Dr. Flavia Hoyte consults with Dr. Njira Lugogo to discuss a patient with poorly controlled, late-onset severe disease who may be a candidate for biologic therapy. |
