Key facts about food allergies:

• Early identification and management are crucial in reducing the risk of life-threatening reactions.

Things to remember:

🌬️Today we are raising awareness for World Asthma Day! This year’s theme is Smarter Oral Steroids.

Asthma affects millions of Australians, and it’s essential to recognise how we can better manage and treat it, especially when it comes to oral steroids. Smarter approaches in asthma treatment, including the use of oral steroids, can significantly improve outcomes and reduce the risk of unnecessary side effects.

Here’s how you can get involved:
• Check your inhaler technique to ensure you’re getting the most out of your medication.
• Talk to your GP about the right treatment plan, including when to use oral steroids and how to manage asthma triggers effectively.
• Understand your asthma triggers and avoid them to prevent flare-ups.
We are committed to supporting patients with asthma by providing ongoing care, guidance, and treatment options to help you breathe easier.

If you or someone you know has asthma, don’t hesitate to book an appointment to review your asthma management plan with the experienced GPs.

Together, let’s breathe easier! 💙
