Abstract     Astma je pogosta kronična bolezen dihal, za katero sta značilni obstrukcija in vnetje. Novejše raziskave kažejo, da so male dihalne poti pomembno prizadete pri astmi in odgovorne za številne simptome bolezni. Z novejšimi inhalatorji je omogočena boljša depozicija zdravila v malih dihalih. Zdravljenje z omalizumabom pomembno izboljša zdravljenje težke alergijske astme.Asthma is common, chronic respiratory disease. It is characterized by airway obstruction and an inflamatory process that affects the whole respiratory tract. In recent years ther has been shown that small airways contribute significantly to the clinical expression of asthma. With new small-particale aerosols better deposition in peripheral lung is posible. Therapy with omalizumab significantly improve asthma-related quality of life and asthma symptoms.
