Must not have
Patients who do not complete at least 70% of the twice-daily texts during the two weeks after screening.
Current use of a biologic medication or investigational treatment for asthma.
Timeline

Summary

This trial seeks to assess why people don't take their inhalers & test a new approach to reduce asthma hospitalization due to non-adherence.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 18-75 with mild or moderate persistent asthma who have been non-adherent to their daily maintenance inhalers, missing at least two expected refills in the past six months. Participants must have partially controlled or moderately uncontrolled asthma and be willing to use a smartphone-connected device.
What is being tested?
The study tests if using budesonide/formoterol only when symptoms occur is as effective as sticking to regular maintenance inhaler therapy combined with symptom-driven SABA. It aims to address the issue of patients not regularly using their prescribed inhalers.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions associated with inhaled steroids and bronchodilators such as throat irritation, coughing, hoarseness, dry mouth, headache, tremors, nervousness, and possible increased risk of infections.
