Asthma Magazine (AM)
Journal Descriptions
Asthma Magazine was a bimonthly educational periodical launched in 1996 to provide practical, patient‑centered information on asthma and allergy care. Published initially by C.V. Mosby in the United States and later associated with Elsevier’s periodical collections, the magazine served as a resource for both patients and healthcare professionals. Its content emphasized disease management strategies, treatment updates, lifestyle tips, and expert commentary designed to empower readers living with asthma. Through collaborations with organizations such as the American Lung Association and asthma research groups, the magazine helped disseminate reliable, accessible guidance on understanding asthma triggers, medication adherence, environmental control, and self‑care techniques. Across its run through the mid‑2000s, it established itself as an important medium for patient education, offering insight into both clinical perspectives and everyday experiences of respiratory disease. Rachel Butler, the magazine’s co‑founder and longtime editor‑in‑chief, shaped its mission to improve patient awareness and quality of life through clear, engaging writing. Although the magazine ceased publication around 2006, its archived issues remain a reference point for historical asthma education materials.
