What is Cough Variant Asthma?

A kind of asthma with the main symptom being a constant dry cough. This occurs because the airways are very sensitive and overreact to foreign substances. The root cause is unclear but involves genetics. Many triggers for asthma flare-ups exist, including smoke, pollen, dust mite droppings, cold weather, exercise, and viral infections.

Typical Symptoms of Cough Variant Asthma

Diagnostic Questions for Cough Variant Asthma

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Does your cough get worse with exercise?
  • Do you have yellow or green sputum?
  • Do you cough frequently?
  • Do you cough or have difficulty breathing at night or when waking up?
  • Does anyone in your family have a history of asthma, allergies, or hay fever?

Treatment of Cough Variant Asthma

Asthma is treated by avoiding triggers, using "rescue" inhalers during attacks, and "preventive" inhalers. The doctor may prescribe different inhalers for different purposes (prevention and rescue). Other types of inhalers and tablets can be added to improve control. In cases of Severe and Uncontrolled Asthma, biologic therapies should also be considered, which are targeted medications that address specific immune system pathways and reduce inflammation in the airways. Severe attacks can be life-threatening and require emergency medical care. Doctors who specialize in treating patients with asthma are called allergists and pulmonologists.

My experience was great. I was worried, but the symptom checker helped me narrow down what it might be. I feel a little relieved compared to when I first started, and it gives me a starting point for what my symptoms could mean.

Female, 40s

I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
