The Role of Budesonide in Adults and Children with Mild-to-Moderate Persistent Asthma
Asthma, a chronic and potentially life-threatening disease of the airways, affects patients of all ages. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are the recommended first-line therapy for patients with persistent asthma. To review the clinical efficacy and tolerability data available on budesonide in the treatment of mild-to-moderate persistent asthma, a MEDLINE database search was performed for 1996–2003 using
the following key words: budesonide, inhaled corticosteroid, efficacy, safety, systemic.
