Abstract
Asthma is a disease of the airways that is characterized by chronic inflammation and disordered airway function. The purpose of writing the current review paper is to review the history, current situation, control history, challenges, and ongoing management programs of asthma. Some official websites of known respiratory professional bodies were consulted for asthma guidelines, and information from Google Scholar® and PubMed® was also consulted. We reviewed around two hundred eight papers, and then, inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to prepare this manuscript. Out of these papers, thirty papers, factsheets, and some official websites were used to prepare this manuscript. Physicians should follow already existing asthma guidelines in order to manage asthma. All prescribed medications should be continued. The government should make and adopt more strategies to promote the rational use of anti-asthmatic drugs and healthcare facilities and also make plans to disseminate more awareness among people about the schemes and programs made for safeguarding people against this life-threatening disease. We have done so much advancement to fight against this deadly disease, and we still need time to make the globe asthma-free. The number of people suffering from asthma is more than the number of people suffering from HIV infection and tuberculosis. Understanding the recommendations of professional bodies will assist in medical decision-making in asthma management. The individual needs of patients should be considered by healthcare professionals.
期刊介绍：
