Résumé
Induced asthma and sport. Asthma is a common condition and the symptoms can be particularly triggered by sports activity, exercise being a current stimulus of bronchoconstriction. Nevertheless, the therapeutic arsenal that physician has and the implementation of international recommendations, based on optimal control of asthma, allow for perfectly adapted care. The anti- doping rules must be known in order to define optimal treatment and not to put the athlete in a violation situation, implications in terms of sports sanctions can be serious. However, the exemption of three major beta-2 agonists (salbutamol, formoterol and salmeterol) from the list of prohibited products and the permission of any inhaled corticosteroid therapy (in compliance with the usual therapeutic doses) allows an asthma treatment (background and emergency) to really control asthma or exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Completely integrated into therapeutic education, sports activity must be encouraged in asthmatics.
