Last year?s National Review of Asthma Deaths highlighted prescribing errors in nearly half of asthma deaths in primary care (47%). Now new analysis from Asthma UK, based on data from over 500 UK GP practices, reveals evidence that over 22,000 people with asthma in the UK, including 2,000 children, have been prescribed medicines (long-acting reliever inhalers) in a way that is so unsafe they have a ?black box warning? in the USA due to the risk they pose to the lives of people with asthma.Source: Unsafe prescribing increases risk of life threatening asthma attacks
