Abstract
Viruses are the most common pathogens of acute respiratory diseases — most often causing mild symptoms of common cold: cough, runny nose, temperature increases. At the same time, 1/3 of children have the following symptoms of lower respiratory tract disorders: shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, respiratory failure. Virus-induced wheezing are risk factors for development of asthma in childhood. Recent clinical and scientific data suggest: the more difficult are viral respiratory infections in young children, the higher their risk of asthma later on. Another feature is that children with allergic diseases are much more likely to have viral respiratory infections (and with longer clinical course), compared with children without atopy. The use of ibuprofen is safe for children over 3 months, including suffering from bronchial asthma.

Summary
В период с 1980 по 2003 г. распространенность бронхиальной астмы (БА) у детей США увеличилась почти вдвое и составила ~6%. Данные многочисленных эпидемиологических исследований подтвердили, что одним из значимых факторов риска развития рецидивирующих бронхообструкций/свистящего дыхания, а затем уже и БА у детей являются острые респираторные инфекции (ОРИ) вирусной этиологии. Вирусы — наиболее распространенные возбудители ОРИ — чаще всего вызывают легкие симптомы простуды вызванные поражением верхних дыхательных путей: кашель, насморк, повышение температуры тела.
