Objective To evaluate the efficacy of specific immunotherapy in combination with budesonide formoterol dry powder inhaler ( BUD/FM) in the treatment of moderate to severe bronchial asthma. Methods The data of 93 patients with moderate to severe asthma from September 2006 to September 2008 were analyzed. 46 cases who received BUD/FM therapy were recorded as a BUD/FM treatment group, and 47 cases who received BUD/FMand dustmite specific immunotherapy were recorded asa combination treatment group. After 6, 12, 18, and 24 months, asthma symptom scores, pulmonary function,effective rate, and scores of Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire ( AQLQ) were compared in the two treatment groups. Results Compared with the BUD/FMtreatment group, the effective rate was significantlyhigher ( 83. 0% vs. 65. 2% , P lt;0. 05) , the lung function improvements in FEV1% pred and expiratory peak flow were more significant in the latter period of treatment, and AQLQ scores improved more significantly after 24 months’treatment in the combination treatment group. Conclusion For patients with moderate tosevere asthma, specific immunotherapy in combination with BUD/FMcan improve asthma symptoms and lung function with good compliance and long lasting efficacy.
