- Abstract
Asthma is a chronic disease and asthma control can be affected by many factors. In case of difficult asthma, intensifying drug therapy is not the key. This type of asthma needs an overall management in order to diagnose and treat each factor known to be associated with poor asthma control. The aim of this article is to describe the structured and systematic approach for these patients., Competing Interests: Le Pr Christophe von Garnier reçoit des honoraires pour activité de consultant ou orateur pour des présentations de : AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, GSK, Mundipharma, Novartis, Pfizer, OM Pharma, PneumRx et Pulmonx, Sanofi et Schwabe Pharma AG.
