The results suggest that flexible 'symptom-directed' medication use and patient-initiated dose reduction may be viable alternatives to regular medication for a number of lower severity patients. For milder asthma, clinicians should perhaps focus their efforts on patients with poor asthma outcomes, rather than poor adherence.
