Abstract

The global prevalence of asthma stands at 262 million people. Short-acting beta-2 agonists (SABA) are commonly used for asthma relief, but concerns about their overuse, especially due to the over-the-counter (OTC) availability in Malaysia, have arisen. This study investigated perceptions, attitudes, and practices of asthma patients and community pharmacists towards the use of SABA at community pharmacies of Malaysia.
