Which type of medication is typically used to relieve inflammation and treat diseases like asthma?

Antifungals
Thyroid replacement hormones
Antivirals
Steroids

The correct answer is: Steroids

Steroids are the type of medication typically used to relieve inflammation and treat diseases like asthma. Antifungals, thyroid replacement hormones, and antivirals are not usually effective in treating inflammation and asthma. Antifungals are used to treat fungal infections, which are not related to inflammation or asthma. Thyroid replacement hormones are used to treat thyroid disorders, which are also unrelated to inflammation and asthma. Antivirals are used to treat viral infections, which are not the cause of inflammation or asthma. Therefore, steroids are the only appropriate choice for treating inflammation and asthma.
