Respiratory infections (i.e., viral and not bacterial) or allergy to microorganisms is the major precipitating factor of an acute asthma attack. Sensitivity to specific drugs may occur in some asthmatic persons, especially those with nasal polyps and sinusitis, resulting in an asthma episode. Gastroesophageal reflux disease can also trigger asthma. ................
