Secondary objectives:
* To describe the initial one-year changes in health resource use before and after the initiation of mepolizumab treatment
* To further characterize rates of change in health resource usage and/or costs in subpopulations of interest (sex, age groups, severe asthma, uncontrolled asthma, COPD, diabetes)
This retrospective, non-interventional (not involving human subjects) database study will compare real-life patient health resource consumption before versus after a first injection of mepolizumab. Data concerning patients receiving mepolizumab will be collated for a 12-month period (the "baseline period") preceding a first index treatment (at "T0") and compared to a 12-month period occurring after the index treatment (the "exposure period").
