Question

The action of steroids on the asthmatic patient will help in:

• A. reducing inflammation of bronchioles
• B. increasing inflammation of bronchioles
• C. treating running nose
• D. blockage of airways

Answer 1

The correct option is A

reducing inflammation of bronchioles

Steroids and other anti-inflammatory drugs work by reducing inflammation, swelling, and mucus production in the airways of a person with asthma. As a result, the airways are less inflamed and less likely to react to asthma triggers, allowing people with symptoms of asthma to have better control over their condition. They need to take regular dose every morning to reduce the problem of over reaction.
