A Plan to Help with Asthma
Few things are as scary as not being able to breathe. So if
you have asthma, you need to know how to keep track of your
symptoms every day and avoid things that make them worse.
One tool that may help you is
called an asthma action plan.
Created just for you, it is a set of
written instructions. It includes this
information:
- How to avoid things that trigger your asthma
- When and how to take your asthma drugs
- How to understand your peak-flow readings and symptoms
- What to do if you have an asthma attack
- When and at what number to call your doctor
- When to go to the emergency room or call 911
If you do not have an action
plan and need one, please call
1-419-887-2312. Be sure to review
it with your doctor at every visit.
