[Treatment for asthma and international recommendations].
This is a short review of current "asthma guidelines". It is an opportunity to discuss briefly the pro and cons of the guidelines as such, and also of the Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM), as well as the links between guidelines and EBM. We try to define what are the guidelines and what they are not.
