Yes they are used for Asthma and Arthritis, and a variety of other conditions to.
Depending on the condition, severity, cause, etc they may be taken in inhaled form (ie an inhaler, like for Asthma) or may be topical (applied to the skin).
They come in many doses depending on the reason for giving them.
I think they are only available via pharmacist prescription for most treatments but some may be brought over the counter.
I take them for asthma; My ex-boyfriend had them for his itchy skin condition.
