Shadow cost of oral corticosteroids-related adverse events: A?pharmacoeconomic evaluation applied to real-life data from?the?Severe?Asthma Network in Italy (SANI) registryDOI: 10.1016/j.waojou.2018.12.001 Keywords: Severe asthma, Oral corticosteroids, Adverse events, Pharmacoeconomy, Costs, Diabetes, Glaucoma, Obesity, Bone fracture, Chronic kidney disease Abstract: Asthma is one of the most common non-communicable respiratory diseases, affecting about 6% of the general population.
