NanniniAbstractIn this brief communication, it was described the overreliance link generated between a young asthmatic subject and Short Acting Beta agonist (SABA) bronchodilator. It was an attempt to delineate the stages of this conflicting link where predominated the overreliance on SABA that might be one of the main circumstances surrounding near fatal asthma attack.
