Step-Up Yellow Zone Inhaled Corticosteroids to Prevent Exacerbations

The objective of this study is to determine whether, in children receiving low-dose ICS, quintupling the dose of inhaled corticosteroids in the “yellow zone” based upon a symptom-based action plan reduces the rate of severe asthma exacerbations treated with oral corticosteroids.

In order to participate you must meet the following criteria:

• Have asthma.
• Be between the ages of 5-11 years old.

This is a partial list of inclusion criteria.
