Dosing: Low, Medium, High

Low dose ICS provides most of the clinical benefit for most patients. However, ICS responsiveness varies between patients, so some patients may need medium dose ICS if asthma is uncontrolled despite good adherence and correct inhaler technique with low dose ICS. High dose ICS is needed by very few patients, and its long-term use is associated with an increased risk of local and systemic side-effects.
