GINA recommends regularly assessing multimorbidity in people with asthma. Conditions such as rhinitis, sinusitis, gastro-oesophageal reflux, obesity, obstructive sleep apnoea, depression and anxiety, if not treated, can contribute to poor asthma control.

GINA recommends regularly assessing asthma treatment issues:
Record the patient’s current treatment, inhaler technique, adherence, patient attitudes and goals, and provide or amend a written asthma action plan.

It’s not enough to only ask about drugs. bit.ly/436r063
