Our friends at Baylor Health Care System came up with this way of assessing your asthma treatment plan. The Rules of Two state:
Your treatment is NOT working if...
1) You have asthma symptoms and require use of a quick-relief inhaler TWO or more times a week.
2) Your asthma wakes you up TWO or more times a month.
3) You refill your quick-relief inhaler canister TWO or more times a year.
If you experience any of these, you should schedule a visit with your primary care doctor or board-certified allergist.
How do you evaluate whether your asthma treatment is working or not?
