Study says use of asthma drug triples death risk
BOSTON — People who overuse a common kind of inhaled drug used to relieve asthma attacks face a greatly increased risk of death, a study concludes.
The Associated Press
the researchers do not know whether the drugs, called beta agonists, are themselves to blame. But they said asthmatic nearly tripled their chance of death with each canister of the spray they use each month.
Beta agonists have been the primary drug used to treat asthma, but some doctors are now recommending that other drugs be used first and beta agonists reserved as a backup to relieve acute attacks.
The risk varies, depending on the specific kind of beta agonist taken.
The researchers said they thought that occasional use was probably safe, but heavy, long-term reliance was a substantial health risk.
