- Abstract
The use of inhaled corticosteroids in the long-term treatment in children with mild or moderate asthma may influence their growth and development. The aim of the study is to assess the way in which the use of inhaled corticosteroids in low doses in children with asthma influences their growth rate. The study was developed on a period of two years measuring a number of eight anthropometric parameters every six months. The data obtained do not indicate a significant decrease in the growth rate of the studied cases.
