AbstractIn the pediatric population, asthma is the most common chronic disease. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease consisting of variable respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. Proper and timely diagnosis remains of utmost importance. Early diagnosis allows for earlier treatment and subsequent reduction of morbidity and mortality. Newer research and medications have changed the treatment paradigm, including the addition of biologic agents for more severe cases and use of inhaled corticosteroid-formoterol inhaler as a rescue treatment.Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc.
