Talking to your doctor
Doing everything you can for your severe asthma and it still isn’t enough?
At your next appointment, talk about:
Flare-ups
The times when your asthma symptoms worsened or you experienced an asthma attack (exacerbation)
Oral steroids
The times when you had to take oral steroids (like prednisone) to help manage your asthma
Daily activities
The times when your asthma interfered with your day-to-day life
Find an asthma specialist to talk to about NUCALA.
If you have severe asthma, especially the eosinophilic type, your primary care doctor may need to refer you to an asthma specialist. A pulmonologist or allergist is the right expert to help you manage your type of asthma. If you don’t have an asthma specialist, click below to find one near you.

Together, we called on NUCALA.”
Ask your doctor about NUCALA
As you learn about NUCALA, you’ll realize that it’s a different kind of asthma medicine. It’s an injection you receive every 4 weeks in your doctor's office or take at home, not a steroid or an inhaler. NUCALA helps prevent severe asthma attacks and helps reduce the use of oral steroids when added to your asthma medications. Your results may vary.
Start a conversation with the Doctor Discussion Guide.
