Although health statistics in Ukraine are difficult to obtain, there does appear to be an increase in the occurrence of asthma. Overall reporting of asthma is less frequent than in Western Europe, perhaps due to insufficient diagnostic capabilities at the present time. Asthma therapy in the Ukraine tends toward the use of theophylline and beta 2-agonists, rather than inhaled corticosteroids. Asthma morbidity differs in various regions of Ukraine, perhaps as a consequence of increased environmental exposure in some areas.
尽管乌克兰的健康统计数据难以获取，但哮喘的发病率似乎确实在上升。总体而言，哮喘的报告频率低于西欧，这可能是由于目前诊断能力不足所致。乌克兰的哮喘治疗倾向于使用茶碱和β2激动剂，而非吸入性糖皮质激素。乌克兰不同地区的哮喘发病率有所不同，这可能是一些地区环境暴露增加的结果。
