What is NOT an indication for the use of LTRAs?

  1. Prophylaxis of asthma

  2. Long-term treatment of asthma

  3. Management of acute asthmatic attacks

  4. Treatment of allergic rhinitis

The correct answer is: Management of acute asthmatic attacks

An indication for the use of LTRAs refers to a condition or situation where LTRAs are recommended or prescribed. C is not an indication for the use of LTRAs because LTRAs are not intended for managing acute asthmatic attacks. LTRAs are used for long-term treatment of asthma and for prophylaxis of asthma, meaning to prevent symptoms from occurring. LTRAs are also used for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, a condition where the lining of the nose becomes inflamed due to an allergen. Therefore, C is the incorrect option as it does not align with the purposes for which LTRAs are used.
