Abstract
Asthma was diagnosed as frequently in older as in younger adults. Preexisting symptoms were equally common, but lung function was more reduced pre-diagnosis, and declined more rapidly in older adults. This emphasizes the need for a high level of therapeutic attention in patients with asthma diagnosed late in life.
