One of the best ways to look after your asthma is to use an asthma action plan.<\/p>\n

What is an asthma action plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everyone with asthma can benefit from using an asthma action plan.\u00a0 It tells you,\u00a0and anyone with you:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Which medicines you take every day to prevent symptoms and cut your risk of an asthma attack<\/li>\n
  2. What to do if your asthma symptoms are getting worse<\/li>\n
  3. The emergency action to take\u00a0if you\u2019re having an asthma attack<\/a>and when to call 911.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You fill it in with your GP or asthma respiratory therapist, so it\u2019s personal to you and your asthma.<\/p>\n

    If your GP hasn\u2019t offered you an asthma action plan, don\u2019t be afraid to ask him for one.<\/p>\n<\/div>
