ABSTRACT
Severe asthma represents 3–10% of all cases of asthma, but accounts for > 60% of total asthma-related medical costs. Uncontrolled asthma symptoms and frequent asthma exacerbations associated with severe asthma have profound adverse effects on patients' quality of life. The concepts of difficult-to-treat asthma and severe asthma are different; severe asthma represents one kind of difficult-to-treat asthma. Misdiagnosis, nonadherence, and comorbidities may also be causes of difficult-to-treat asthma. This review discusses important principles in the treatment of difficult-to-treat asthma and severe asthma.
