Assessing Symptom-driven versus maintenance preventer therapy for the outpatient management of Asthma in children.

Please refer children and young people 6-15 years with mild asthma who are prescribed inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) – the study is investigating whether symptom driven use of inhaled corticosteroid is non-inferior to daily maintenance on the risk of asthma attacks requiring oral corticosteroid.
