Asthma
By: E. Salehifar (PharmD, BCPS)
Asthma: Background
At least 15 million Americans have asthma
Annually cost > 12 & billion
Asthma is the leading cause of lost school
days in children and a common cause of lost
work days among adults
Mortality is rising for unknown reason
After TB and HIV, Asthma had much more rise
in incidence during the past 2 decades in Iran

Pulmonary diseases
Obstructive diseases •
Asthma –
COPD (Bronchitis, Emphysema) –
Restrictive diseases •
Pulmonary fibrosis –
Pneumonia –
Khyphoscoliosis –
Definition
A chronic inflammatory disease that causes •
recurrent episodes of wheezing,
breathlessness, chest tightness, and cough
particularly at night and in the early morning
Airflow obstruction is reversible •
The inflammation causes bronchial •
hyperresponsiveness
Allergens:
Aeroalergenes
Viruses
pets
Smoke
Exercise
Wood dust
Chemicals

Etiology
Childhood-onset •
Genetic predisposition for IgE-mediated •
response to common aeroallergens (tree and
grass pollen, pets, …) called as “Atopy”
Positive family history •
Adult-onset •
Many adults have a negative family history and •
negative skin tests
Some may have nasal polyps, ASA sensitiity & •
sinusitis
Workplace allergens (wood dusts, chemicals) •
Allergy, Asthma
Pathophysiology
Inflammatory cells •
Eosinophils, Th2 Lymphocyte, Mast cells, –
Macrophages, Neutrophis
Inflamatory mediators •
Leucotrienes (LTD4, LTE4), Interleukines (IL-4, –
IL-5), Histamine, prostaglandines (PGD2, PGE2)
Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology
Airway changes
Symptoms
Classical symptoms •
Expiratory wheezing •
Coughing •
Dyspnea •
Chest tightness or a chronic cough without •
wheezing in some patients
Wide variety in symptoms •

Classification
Step 4: Severe Persistent
Step 3: Moderate Persistent
Step 2: Mild Persistent
Step 1: Mild Intermittent
Only patients in step 1 doesn't need daily medication, other –
patients should receive Anti-inflammatory drugs
Salbutmol (Spray) is indicated for quick relief not for –
long- term control and use of salbutamol >2/week may
indicate need to anti-inflammatory drugs
A rescue course of systemic corticosteroid may be needed at –
any time and at any step!

Limitations of Spirometry &
Peakflowmetry
Need complete patient’s corporation
Are unobtainable in severely ill patients (esp.
spirometry)
FEV1 and PEF are relatively insensitive to small
airway changes

Treatment
Asthma Exacerbation
Salbutamol (Albuterol) (Ventolin®) –
MDI+Spacer: 4-8 puffs Q 20 min up to 4 hr, then every 1-4 hr as •
needed

as needed
Ipratropium bromide (Atrovent®) –
MDI: 4-8 puffs as needed (Should bee added to β2-agonist •
therapy)
Nebulizer: 0.5 mg Q 30 min for 3 doses then Q 2-4 hr as needed •
Tiotropium (Spirivia) inhal cap: 18 µg –
Corticosteroids (Prednisolone, Methyl –
prednisolone)
Prednisolone: 120-180 mg in 3-4 divided dose for 48 hr, then 60-80 •
Treatment
Long-Term Control Medications
