Hot black coffee works for me when l forget my inhaler. Ive heard that you can use hot tea too but Ive found coffee works best.

There is oral medication too. But you have to take it on a regular basis and it wo not do anything when you are having an attack. Try sitting down and relaxing. Breathing evenly. If you can get some kind of steam that normally helps. But the best thing to do if you are a serious asthmatic is to learn to carry that inhaler with you.

It is the best way because the meds help open your air passage which is whats closing to make it hard to breath.

l dont carry my inhaler with me when l run sometimes so l just lay down for a while and breath, put some water on a rag and cover my head (not the mouth) taking deep breaths till l feel better.

no, depends on the level of your asthma attack. but it is better to have one handy. discovered in an acute asthma attack breath deeply and slowly and try to stay calm. if not it becomes worst

You should ALWAYS have ur inhaler with you. It may save ur life. In an emergency situation, black coffee can be a temporary bronchodilator (due to the caffeine). Depending on how severe ur asthma is, u may need to have a nebulizer for when the inhalers r not doing the trick. If u r getting frequent attacks, u may need to be put on preventative medicine.

Never leave home without ur inhaler!! Inhalers work to relax the muscles around the airways. If u do not relax those muscles, it may result in worsening symptoms & may lead to death or unconsciousness.

The ''rescue inhaler'' should be carried with you-it is inconvenient, but trust me- you will wish you carried it if you ever have an attack!

Daily meds may also help decrease the need for the increased use of the the rescue inhaler.
