D

leukotriene receptor blockers

Explanation

Asthma treatment can include corticosteroids, which reduce airway inflammation, and mast cell stabilizers, which help prevent asthma symptoms. Leukotriene receptor blockers also reduce airway inflammation and can help control asthma. Expectorants loosen mucus, while antitussives suppress coughing; neither is a usual medication for treating asthma itself.
