Nocturnal asthma and exercise-induced bronchospasm

Preview

More than two thirds of all patients with asthma struggle with nocturnal worsening of their symptoms, exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, or both. Understanding the causes of these problems provides a basis for controlling symptoms. Drs Wright and Martin elucidate those causes and make practical recommendations for minimizing nocturnal asthma and increasing patients' ability to exercise.
