Nice results from the chlortrimeton. :-) Please keep us posted, as this would indeed be a simple solution for many folks.

Nice results from the chlortrimeton. :-)

Go to "science daily" and look at the body of research. Researchers from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada, conducted a systematic review and metaanalysis of 19 clinical studies (total subjects=425,140) that compared the risk of asthma or wheezing with acetaminophen exposure. The analysis showed that the pooled odds ratio (odds ratio for all studies combined) for asthma among users of acetaminophen was 1.63. The risk of asthma in children who used acetaminophen in the year prior to asthma diagnosis or in the first year of life was elevated to 1.60 and 1.47, respectively. Furthermore, results showed a slight increase in the risk of asthma and wheezing with prenatal use of acetaminophen by mothers. Researchers speculate that acetaminophen's lack of inhibition of cyclooxygenase, the key enzyme involved in the inflammatory response of asthma, may be one explanation for the potential link between acetaminophen use and asthma. What do you think? I have been taking antihistamines (chlortrimeton) for 5 days and have reduced my asthma attachks from 3-4 each day to 1 in the 5 day period. This involved one tablet in the morning and one before bed. Would others like to consider a simple solution and let me know the results? Thanks for the opportunity...

I am a professional who works everyday and lives with symptoms that never seem to subside. I too read everything that is available on "how to" live with asthma without taking medications. In Arizona, mullein is harvested from off-road sites that are considered clean (avoid heavy traffic areas). The younger plants are best for harvesting and one should avoid pulling plants from the ground as the young leaves are the best source for drying and making tinctures. The roots will also produce a new plant in the spring. As mullein does not transplant, the seeds are harvested in the fall and sown in garden areas. Growing up in the applachian mountain region, mullein was a household herb used for respiratory problems with both young children and older adults. Typically mullein was taken daily as a tea. Web sites are now available with instructions on making tinctures. Mullein can be burned in a small container and the smoke inhaled for immediate relief during an asthma attack (if mullein works for you). Cody, thanks for the opportunity to let others know that mullein can be safely harvested and used to prevent or lessen the severity of asthma. Hi, I am also an asthma victim with recent onset.
