Core Tip	Allergic responses have been extensively studied but may be overemphasized for asthma; some asthma is frequently found to be associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) rather than “allergy”. That a subgroup of asthma could be induced or exacerbated by gastroesophageal reflux has become consensus. GERD should be assessed in asthmatic patients who also have typical symptoms of GERD, as well as in patients with nonatopic or severe/refractory asthma. The optimal strategies for the diagnosis of GERD-related asthma and its therapy are still being debated. However, there is evidence to suggest that antireflux treatment is effective and practical for asthmatic patients with well-defined reflux disease.
