A vitamin supplement may help treat asthma patients who do not respond to standard drugs, research suggests.
People who fail to respond to steroid therapy suffer repeated attacks and are at a greater risk of dying.
A team at King's College London found the vitamin D3 could improve these patients' responsiveness to steroids.
The researchers say their work, published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, could potentially save patients' lives and NHS resources.
