Asthma Review 

What is an asthma review 

An asthma review is a routine check-up with a Practice Nurse or Pharmacist to see how your asthma is. 

Patients with a diagnosis of asthma will be invited to complete an asthma review questionnaire on an annual basis. The Practice Nurse or Pharmacist will then review the completed questionnaire and arrange a short telephone consultation to discuss your asthma.  Depending on the information provided in the form a routine face to face appointment may need to be arranged.  Complete asthma review form 

During an asthma review you can talk about: 

  • Your symptoms and if they are stopping you from doing everyday things or keeping you awake at night.
  • Ways to manage your asthma better so you can lower your risk of an asthma attack. 
  • Your medicines and inhalers and how often you use them. 
  • Your inhaler technique and how to use a metered dose inhaler (MDI) 
  • Stopping smoking, exercise, or keeping to a healthy weight which can all help your asthma. 
  • Your asthma action plan and if it needs updated. 

Why do I need an asthma review? 

An asthma review helps you manage your asthma in the best way possible.  It can help lower your risk of having an asthma attack.  

It’s worth having an asthma review even if you are keeping well.  You can check you are on the lowest dose of asthma medicine to keep you free of symptoms.
