Asthma is a common chronic lung disease that causes swelling of the airways, making it hard to breathe when the airways that carry air from the nose and mouth to the lungs narrow. Symptoms of Asthma include trouble breathing, coughing, wheezing and tightness in the chest.

Aside from the physical symptoms and their impact on quality of life and ability to do many activities, many people with Asthma also experience social and emotional problems.

There is no cure for asthma. Although there are medications that can help many people manage their symptoms, some people continue to struggle with Asthma. You may be one of them. That’s why researchers are working to develop medications that may better treat Asthma and control the symptoms in the future.

Right now, doctors are looking for people to participate in local Asthma research studies.

Take the next step to see if you qualify for local research studies for people with Asthma. But don’t delay — space is limited!
