All Rights Reserved. AbstractAsthma is one of the most common chronic disorders in Western and developing countries, the prevalence of which has almost tripled in the last three decades. Asthma remains a severely disabling and life threatening disease for many sufferers despite the availability of effective treatments, owing to low levels of disease awareness amongst both patients and physicians, leading to under estimation of disease severity and sub-optimal disease management. Furthermore, up to a half of all sufferers remain undiagnosed in countries such as the US representing a considerable untapped patient potential.Over the next ten years heightened efforts to reduce the heavy burden asthma places on a country’s healthcare expenditure, coupled with the wider availability of generic products, will result in a shift in physician prescribing patterns, creating a need for more effective and targeted marketing strategies to guarantee the success of any new products launched. This report provides an integrated look at asthma care, covering all aspects of management including: * a thorough analysis of the key drivers of presentation, diagnosis and treatment rates, as well as patient compliance, including the factors influencing awareness of the disease amongst both physicians and the public. * identification of the most commonly used drug classes in each country, a breakdown of the most widely employed brands and key factors influencing physician treatment choices, as well as identification of the current unmet needs of asthma therapy. * analysis of the key factors influencing physician prescribing over the next seven years (2001-2008), including changes in disease understanding, major patent expiries and future changes in treatment practices.
