ICS - Clinical Pearls
- Pts should rinse their mouth and spit after use to prevent oral thrush
- Most effective long-term control therapy for asthma (improve quality of life, increase lung function, and reduce the risk of exacerbations)
- May increase the risk of pneumonia in pts w/ COPD
- Titrate to lowest effective dose - see low, medium and high dose conversion table
- High doses increase the risk for systemic side effects
