Sometimes having asthma can make you more susceptible to an infection which is not caused by a bacteria or virus but by a fungal infection. This is treated using anti fungal medication.
Examples of anti fungal medicines include:
- Itraconazole (Sporanox®).
What do they do?
- Some asthma patients have lung infections which can make their asthma symptoms worse and more difficult to control.
- These medicines stop the fungus from growing and allow the body a greater chance to fight the infection.
