First seen Nov 17, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study looked at nearly 20,000 adults with asthma to see if long-term use of inhaled or oral steroids increases the risk of bone thinning (osteoporosis) and other metabolic problems like diabetes and high blood pressure. Researchers compared people who took higher doses of steroids to those who took lower doses. The goal was to understand the real-world impact of these common medications on bone health and overall wellness.
