 BACKGROUNDS:Inhaled corticosteroid/long-actingβ2 agonist(ICS/LABA)plays important roles in the treatment of asthma. To date, four ICS/LABAs have been approved in Japan, however, there is no established recommendation for appropriate administration of the four drugs. In the present study, we investigated the reasons and effectiveness of Fruticasone Propionate/Formoterol(FP/FM).  METHODS:In the prospective cohort study, we investigated the reasons for switching to FP/FM and the change of asthma control assessed by Asthma Control Test(ACT)and spirometry in asthmatic patient who were treated with other ICS/LABAs but under poor control.  RESULTS:Twelve patients were included into the final analysis. The major reasons for switching to FP/FM were poor inhalation technique for the previous device and drug cost. Switching to FP/FM improved significantly ACT score and forced expiratory volume at one second, especially in asthmatic patients with severe obstructive change.  CONCLUSIONS:FP/FM may be effective for asthmatic patients who were treated with other ICS/LABAs but under poor control. Further studies are necessary to confirm this.
