Effect of high dose inhaled corticosteroids on cell mediated immunity in patients with asthma
2012, Allergologia et ImmunopathologiaCitation Excerpt :As the prevalence of asthma has been increasing, so has the use of inhaled corticosteroids, and at higher doses than previously prescribed early in its introduction. Recent studies have shown that inhaled corticosteroids have systemic effects on bone metabolism,3–8 hypothalamus–pituitary adrenal axis,9–15 on linear growth,16–18 and cataracts.19–21 Oral corticosteroids have an even more potent effect on these parameters, and additionally have been shown to suppress cell mediated immunity, increasing an individual's susceptibility of acquiring an opportunistic infection.22–31
