Asthma Resources Online

The Internet can be an excellent resource for information about health care in general and asthma in particular.

The National Asthma Council provides a brief list of links to other asthma and asthma-related websites as a service only and should not be seen as an endorsement for any site.

Care should be exercised when reviewing information from any Internet-related source.
