Three NHLBI guidelines-based versions are available: adult, student and ages 0-4 years old. These easy-to-use fillable PDF plans can be customized to practices and added to EHRs. Each plan features age-appropriate medications and doses in drop down menus for asthma, GERD and allergy medications, and a triggers section. The 0-4 version includes a place for parental permission to administer meds at school or daycare. The student version (5 to 18 years old) includes places for permission to self-carry and administer inhalers at school, and to share the AAP with others who need it.
