Maintenance medications are prescription drugs that you need to take regularly. Drugs that treat ongoing conditions or needs like asthma, diabetes, birth control, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and arthritis are usually considered maintenance medications. A maintenance medication can also be a drug that you take for three to six months and then discontinue. For example, an allergy medication that you take throughout the spring and summer could be considered a maintenance medication.
