Medications for asthma come in two classes: long-term control medications and quick relief medications. Long-term medications are used to achieve and maintain control of chronic or recurring asthma. Quick relief medications immediately take care of asthmatic symptoms. All asthma drugs are prescribed according to the severity of your asthma. You might receive one or both types of treatment. An allergy specialist can prescribe the right medication and dosage to suit your individual needs.
