Abstract

A main goal of asthma treatment is to reduce or eliminate oral corticosteroid (OCS) use due to their adverse effects. Clinical and real-world studies have reported mepolizumab reduces OCS use in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA); further evidence of the longer-term OCS-sparing effect of mepolizumab is needed.
