Inhaled Corticosteroids

Following on from Vanessa Burgess' presentation at the Medicines Optimisation in Respiratory Disease Good Practice Day, below are Lambeth CCGs resources for COPD and asthma reviews.  Please contact Vanessa  Burgess (vanessa.burgess@nhs.net) at NHS Lambeth CCG for further information.

The documents contain Lambeth's 'Step down' pathways for ICS in asthma and COPD, the ICS steroid safety card, and also the Red-Amber-Green-rated ICS dose tables for inhalers. 

Keele are also currently running some analyses looking at high dose ICS use in our subscriber CCGs and will share this data in the near future.
