Asthma Action Plan
Información disponible en español
A written asthma action plan encourages self-management of asthma. Plans include:
- A list of the person's triggers and how to avoid them,
- Instructions for taking asthma medicine,
- Information on what to do during an asthma episode,
- Instructions on when to call a doctor, and
- Emergency telephone numbers.
Action plans should be updated at least once a year. Talk to your doctor to find the best plan that works for you.
