In adolescents, the clinical control of mild-to-moderate atopic asthma is directly and strictly related to the degree of adherence to prescribed inhalation therapies. All clinical and economic outcomes prove dramatically poor when adherence is low, and treatable asthma can be frequently mistaken for refractory asthma in these cases. Adolescents' non-adherence impacts the burden of the disease quite substantially. Much more effective strategies centered specifically on adolescents' asthma are needed
