A Synopsis of the 2025 U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and U.S. Department of Defense Clinical Practice Guideline for the Primary Care Management of Asthma

The WG strongly recommended inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and streamlined management of asthma by suggesting a combination of ICS and rapid-onset long-acting β-agonist as both reliever and controller agents and step-up therapy by increasing ICS and/or adding long-acting anticholinergic agents. The WG also supported the management of symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease and obesity for better control of asthma. The WG suggested against the use of indoor air filtration devices. Finally, the WG outlined decision points for referral to a subspecialist.

Abstract

The WG strongly recommended inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and streamlined management of asthma by suggesting a combination of ICS and rapid-onset long-acting β-agonist as both reliever and controller agents and step-up therapy by increasing ICS and/or adding long-acting anticholinergic agents. The WG also supported the management of symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease and obesity for better control of asthma. The WG suggested against the use of indoor air filtration devices. Finally, the WG outlined decision points for referral to a subspecialist.
