Breathe Easy This Spring...Take Control Over Asthma
(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 22, 2002 ) EDITORS: THIS STORY DOES NOT APPLY TO THE STATES OF MI, MA, MN, OH AND RI. PLEASE DO NOT RUN THIS STORY IN THOSE STATES.
March 2002 (Newstream) --
SUGGESTED ANCHOR LEAD: With the onset of spring comes increased doctor visits for asthma, and an innovative new program for asthma patients. Roberta Facinelli has more. (:55)
SCRIPT: According to the National Institutes of Health, using a rescue inhaler for symptom relief more than twice a week may mean your asthma is not under control. Now, a new program from GlaxoSmithKline offers free rescue medication to eligible patients with asthma who use long-term maintenance treatment. The program aims to help people understand that daily, long-term maintenance treatment can help prevent asthma symptoms from occurring, and that the frequent use of rescue medications can be a sign of poor asthma control. Doctor Kathy Rickard is an asthma specialist with GlaxoSmithKline.
CUT: (Rickard) If you're using a rescue inhaler more than twice a week, you should talk with your doctor about whether you need long-term maintenance therapy, or need to have your current treatment reassessed. The goal should be to prevent asthma symptoms, not just react to them.
SCRIPT: For more information about the program, call 1-877-4 Promise. I'm Roberta Facinelli reporting.
