Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary:

Asa
   physician, son of Abijah and grandson of Rehoboam, was the third
   king of Judah. He was zealous in maintaining the true worship of
   God, and in rooting all idolatry, with its accompanying
   immoralities, out of the land (1 Kings 15:8-14). The Lord gave
   him and his land rest and prosperity. It is recorded of him,
   however, that in his old age, when afflicted, he "sought not to
   the Lord, but to the physicians" (comp. Jer. 17:5). He died in
   the forty-first year of his reign, greatly honoured by his
   people (2 Chr. 16:1-13), and was succeeded by his son
   Jehoshaphat.
