Odds of exacerbation rate on montelukast using an additive model adjusted for age, gender, age at 1st montelukast prescription or age at asthma onset and BMI when significant and available.

Asthma onset is defined as early for individuals ≤ 18 years old at asthma diagnosis and late for individuals over 18 years old at asthma diagnosis.
