ASTHMA


At AZIV Infusion we know that Asthma is a chronic condition affecting the lungs.  Asthma can affect people of all ages, but often it starts in childhood. The disease is due to the narrowing of the bronchial airways from inflammation along with the smooth muscle tightening causing bronchoconstriction episodes. Asthma has no cure, but is manageable with today’s advance treatment options. Moderate to severe asthma may require the use of certain infusion and injectable medications.
