    Author: Bowler S, Mitchell C.
    Journal: Aust Fam Physician; 1983 Sep; 12(9):638-41. PubMed ID: 6139999.
    Abstract:
    Asthma is a disease of remission and exacerbation but the combination of optimal interval therapy with early aggressive self initiated medication during deterioration (particularly oral corticosteroids) should prevent the crises which require emergency intervention. The first and last words in acute asthma management must be prevention and prevention.
