Treatment includes the use of inhibitors of leukotriene receptor (), intranasal steroids, polypectomy, asthma management according to the severity and avoid taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In some patients it is necessary desensitization protocol to it. ⋯ Two patients diagnosed with respiratory disease exacerbated by aspirin, with poor asthma control and need for multiple polypectomies, despite optimal pharmacological management, carrying out protocol desensitization to aspirin (AAS) successful, now after 4 years of having carried out, they have adequate asthma control without need for polypectomies with a maintenance dose of aspirin 150 mg/day.
