Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Magnesium: oral intake of magnesium for asthmatic patients with dose 200 mg per day for one year in addition to usual asthmatic treatment according to GINA guidelines 2024
ICS+LABA: inhaled corticosteroids with long acting Beta 2 agonist are given to control group patients twice daily
Study summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of oral magnesium supplements in controlled asthmatic patients for proper effective asthma management to reduce frequency of asthma exacerbation \& to test the effect of oral magnesium supplementation on improvement of both clinical symptoms and lung functions in patients with bronchial asthma.. The main questions it aims to answer are:
• Can oral supplementation of magnesium play a role in decrease the number of bronchial asthma exacerbations , number of ER visits , number of doctor visits and improve lung function ? Researchers will compare patients on usual treatment according to GINA guidelines 2024 group B and those taking oral magnesium together with the usual group A .
Participants will:
* Take oral magnesium treatment with usual asthma medications according to GINA guidelines (2024) every day for 1year

* Keep a diary of their day and night symptoms and the number of times they had activity limitation due to asthma and the number of use reliever.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- improvement in the degree of asthma control — 6 months to one year
By using GINA assessment of symptom control and future risk including 1) decrease daytime symptoms of asthma. 2) decrease use of relievers . 3)improvement in daily activities. 4) decrease night awakening due to asthma symptoms . By using pulmonary function tests (Spirometer) specially Forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) , any improvement in pulmonary function will be measured .
