People with AERD live with asthma, sinus disease and recurrent nasal polyps, and are sensitive to aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS). Many are undiagnosed. In this webinar, Dr. Rajan Merchant will review the symptoms, causes, diagnosis, management and treatment options for those living with this challenging condition.
