11- Clinical presentation
- In case of chronic ambulatory asthma :
1- Episode of dyspnea.
2- Chest tightness.
3- Coughing ( particularly at night ).
4- Wheezing or a whistling sound when breathing.
- In case of severe acute asthma :

2- Chest tightness.
3- S.O.B
4- The patient is able only to say a few words with each breath.

A. Beta 2 agonist
• SABA :
- e.g : Albuterol .
- Uses
• LABA :
- e.g : 1-Salmetrol
- Uses
2-Formetrol .
- Side effect of both : 1- Tachycardia. 2- Palpitation.
Hypokalemia.
3- Tremor.

B. Corticosteroid
• Inhaled CS :
- e.g : 1- Beclomethasone.
• Oral CS :
- e.g : 1-predinsone,
2-predinsolone
2- Budesonide.
3- Flunisolide.
4- Fluticasone.
5- Trimcinolone.
- Uses

• Short term and long term side effect :
Short term S.E
-Facial flushing.
-Appetite stimulant.
-GIT irritation.
-Mood change.
-Acne.
-Weight gain.
-Hyperglycemia.
-Leukocytosis.
-Hypocalsemia.
Long term S.E
-HPA axis suppression.
-Growth retardation.
-HTN.
-Osteoporosis.

C. Leukotriene receptor antagonist
- e.g : ( Montelukast, Zafirlukast and Zileuton ).
- Uses
D. Mast cell stabilizer
- e.g : ( Cromolyn Na+ and Nedocromil ).
- Uses
10
E. Phosphodiestrase inhibitors
- e.g :
( Theophylline ).
- use
- Factors affecting serum theophylline concentration :
Decrease Theophylline conc.
Increase Theophylline conc.
-High protein diet.
-Smoking.
-Rifampin.
-Phenytoin.
-Phenobarbital.
-Carbamazepine.
-High carbohydrate diet.
-Systemic viral infection.
-Cimetidine.
-Erythromycin.
-Ciprofloxacin.
-Ticlopidine.
11
Other Drugs
F. Anti IgE (Omalizumab).
G. Anticholinergic (Ipratropium).
13
IV. Stepwise approach for managing asthma.
14
V. Steps for using inhaler.
1. Remove the cap and hold inhaler upright.
2. Shake the inhaler.
3. Tilt your head back slightly and breathe out slowly.
4. Position the inhaler in one of the following ways
5. Press down on the inhaler to release medication as
you start to breathe in slowly.
6. Breathe in slowly (3 to 5 seconds).
