Why Asthma Attacks Peak in September

Dr. Gupta and Kortney dive into why asthma attacks spike during September, also known as "peak week." They explain how fall sets the stage for asthma with cooler weather, back-to-school germs, and allergens like ragweed and mold that can trigger symptoms.

They share practical tips on managing asthma during this time, including how to create an asthma action plan, prepare for doctor visits, and find financial help for asthma medications. Whether you have asthma or care for someone who does, this episode is full of valuable advice to help you stay ahead of asthma triggers this fall.
