@prerakjuthani: Albuterol alone is no longer the standard of care for asthma. The guidelines have shifted to SMART/MART therapy — and it changes everything. Here's what you need to know: Steps 1-2 (Mild asthma): As-needed low-dose ICS-formoterol only when symptoms occur — no more SABA monotherapy. Steps 3-4 (Moderate-severe): Daily ICS-formoterol for maintenance PLUS extra doses as a reliever. And don't forget: most asthma patients should also be screened for GERD and obesity — comorbidities that make asthma harder to control. #medtok #asthma #inhalers #residency #pulmonology
