Abstract

Goals. To reveal the clinical efficacy and safety of Asmanex in patients with moderate and severe bronchial asthma (BA), treated with inhaled and/or systemic glucocorticosteroids (GCS), depending on the severity and level of control. Methods. 40 patients (age 18 to 65 years) were treated with Asmanex with equivalent to prior therapy with inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) doses or in combination with systemic corticosteroids prior therapy (without increasing the dose of systemic corticosteroids) for 3 months. Efficacy was assessed before and after the treatment on a background of Asmanex treatment by the need of additional using of agonists of β 2-adrenoreceptors, severity of daytime and nighttime asthma symptoms, dynamics of spirometry parameters. The efficacy of Asmanex was compared with the original baseline therapy of other inhaled corticosteroids at equivalent doses using the new delivery system.
