Asthma is typically treated with a combination of medications and lifestyle modifications. The primary medications used are bronchodilators (such as albuterol) which quickly relieve symptoms by relaxing and opening the airways, and anti-inflammatory medications (like corticosteroids) which reduce inflammation and prevent future attacks. Other treatments may include leukotriene modifiers, combination inhalers, and biologics for severe cases. Lifestyle changes like avoiding triggers, maintaining a healthy weight, and quitting smoking can also help manage asthma symptoms. Regular monitoring and follow-up with a healthcare provider is crucial for effective asthma management. [Source: https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health-topics/asthma-treatment]
