What Can I Do about Uncontrolled Asthma?

Asthma is a chronic lung disease that makes it hard to breathe. You can help your child live a healthy, active life by knowing how to keep their asthma well-controlled. Asthma can be controlled with medicine that will make it easier for your child to learn, sleep, and play.

You can also make sure you and your child have a plan for managing their asthma. If you think asthma is affecting your child in school, you can talk to your family doctor or the school nurse. Explore our materials on how you help keep your child with asthma healthy and ready to learn below.
