How do I know if my child's asthma is under control?

If you answer “yes” to any of the following questions, your child’s asthma may be out of control:

Does your child have asthma symptoms during the day more than twice per week?
Does your child have asthma symptoms during the night more than twice per month?
Is your child using their rescue inhaler more than twice per week?
Is your child having difficulty with exercise because of their asthma?

The Asthma Control Test is a simple tool you can use to assess your child’s asthma control. Go to www.asthmacontrol.com
