Asthma affects 1.1 million children (1 in 11) and 4.3 million adults (1 in 12) in the UK - that's one in five households. Fortunately, effective modern drugs mean that deaths from asthma are less rare than they used to be, especially in view of the millions of people who suffer from the disease in the UK. Nevertheless, one person dies from asthma in the UK every seven hours - and most are adults. Adults also account for 58 per cent of hospital admissions for asthma.

What is asthma?

Types of asthma

Common asthma triggers

Occupational asthma

Diagnosing asthma in adults

Treating asthma in adults

Coping with asthma: beyond drugs
