Asthma is a major public health problem affecting all age groups. The aim of this study was to determine the level of asthma control according to different adult age groups ([20-40], [41-64], 65 years) and to identify factors associated with poor asthma control. Eighty patients were included. The most represented age group was [41-64] . Subjects [20-40 years] had statistically poorer asthma control. Subjects aged [41-64] had a good level of control, but there was no difference between the three groups. For subjects aged 65 and over, asthma was partially controlled.

Eighty patients were included. The most represented age group was [41-64] . Subjects [20-40 years] had statistically poorer asthma control. Subjects aged [41-64] had a good level of control, but there was no difference between the three groups. For subjects aged 65 and over, asthma was partially controlled. The uni-variate study showed that in subjects aged [20-40], a history of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease or depression, lower weight, lower body mass index and a higher degree of smoking intoxication were associated with poor control. In subjects aged 65 and over, a lower pre-broncho dilatation forced vital capacity was associated with poor asthma control.
