Cough-variant asthma presents as a chronic cough, often worsened by exercise or infections. Diagnosis involves bronchial provocation, and treatment typically includes bronchodilators, with potential progression to classical asthma.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Allergy and Immunology

Background:

  • Cough-variant asthma is a distinct clinical entity characterized by chronic, nonproductive cough.
  • Symptoms are frequently triggered by exercise and upper respiratory tract infections.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the diagnostic approaches and therapeutic strategies for cough-variant asthma.
  • To describe the natural history and potential progression of this condition.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical presentation and diagnostic criteria for cough-variant asthma.
  • Discussion of therapeutic options including bronchodilators, cromolyn sodium, and inhaled corticosteroids.

Main Results:

  • Bronchial provocation maneuvers are key diagnostic tools for older children and adults.

  • A significant proportion (33-50%) of patients may develop classical asthma with wheezing over time.

    • Conclusions:

    • Cough-variant asthma is a recognizable condition requiring specific diagnostic and management approaches.
    • Early recognition and treatment may influence the progression to more severe asthma phenotypes.
