šØšØBig news for people with severe #asthma in Australia today. The Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) has changed the eligibility criteria for asthma biologics today (October 1). (1/3)
No more minimum cumulative oral corticosteroids dose. It was always so silly when patients had to take more oral steroids to get a medicine designed to reduce oral steroids harm.
This retrograde requirement is gone! (2/3)
Huge win for patients due to the advocacy from @AsthmaAustralia @tsanz_thoracic @GSK @AstraZeneca @sanofi
The right treatment for the right patient now without unnecessary additional harm š (3/3)
