Update on the utilization of complementary therapies by adolescents with asthma in an urban population
The prevalence of CAM use amongst Bronx adolescents with asthma has likely largely remained stable since an initial 2002 analysis. Despite a lack of association between CAM use and asthma control, there was a high degree of perceived efficacy. Adolescents who use CAM for asthma management may do so as an overall component of health-promoting behavior such as prescription adherence.
