Abstract:
The current understanding in severe asthma management is the targeted therapy approach with the evaluation of phenotypes and biomarkers. Therefore, personalized treatments are recently more prominent. Eosinophilic asthma with chronic rhinosinusitis/nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is one of the severe asthma phenotypes which needs a personalized treatment approach. Biological agents which specifically target type 2 (T2) high inflammation have been used in this severe asthma phenotype with a preferable safety profile. In the present review, biological agents in eosinophilic asthma with CRSwNP will be discussed.

Antiasthma Drugs: Mast Cell Stabilizers and Anti-IgE Drugs
Mast cell stabilizers, such as cromolyn (also known as sodium cromoglycate) and nedocromil (Tilade), are effective drugs in asthma management. These stabilizers hinder histamine release by skillfully obstructing the activation of mast cells and other cellular entities. Notably, they navigate this task without...

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.
Antiasthma Drugs: Inhaled Corticosteroids and Glucocorticoids
ICS work through a multifaceted mechanism of action. They suppress the inflammatory response caused by the proliferation of TH cells. They also reduce the transcription of the IL-2 gene, which is involved in the...
