Healthy Lungs vs Mabis Nebulizer

Continued from above...

Maybe a traditional, prescription-based inhaler hasn't worked for you. Or, maybe you've experienced negative side effects - like a weaker immune system or headaches - or perhaps the ongoing expense has become harder to afford. Whether you want relief from sudden, temporary, seasonal, or long-term lung distress, there's a product for you. There are even asthma products to help clean the lungs and to offer relief for smoker's cough.

Many of these options use all-natural ingredients to soothe your lungs and get you breathing normally, without the side effects that are so commonly experienced with prescription options. Plus, some of these products are administered as a tablet or oral liquid, eliminating the need to try and take a puff of an inhaler when you're already struggling to breathe.

It's important to realize, however, that not all Asthma products work in the same way. Some work to help prevent attacks from happening in the first place, while others operate more like a rescue option at the onset of breathing difficulties. As you consider the various alternatives to prescription medications, be sure you understand the intended forms that each one provides.

With such a variety of products available for the various symptoms you or your loved one possesses, it can be challenging knowing where to start. Here are several factors to consider when looking for a product for asthma or other breathing challenges:

• Your symptoms. Do you have sudden onset of shortness of breath? Do you have chronic tightness of the chest? Is the wheezing coupled with phlegm or dry? Are your symptoms short-term, seasonal, or chronic?
• Immediate or long-term help. Are you looking for immediate relief or are you wanting to take products daily for help long into the future?
• Ingredients. There are products that are all-natural with mostly organic ingredients, there are homeopathic recipes, and there are the over-the-counter drugstore variety. There are helpful products in all categories; choose the one you feel most comfortable with.
• Price. Products can range from $10 to almost $40. If you're looking for occasional use, price may not matter too much. If you want to keep using the product to hopefully avoid the scary feeling of a tight chest, you might consider how much the product will cost you monthly.
• Your doctor. Before taking any product for lung support, consult your healthcare provider. Be especially aware if you are pregnant, nursing, or plan on dispensing a product to a child. Some consumers have been thrilled to reduce their dosage or number of meds when on our highly-rated, over-the-counter products.
• Effectiveness. As with any remedy, results may vary: there's no single asthma product that works 100% of the time for every patient. However, if the medication or supplement tends to work for many people with your same condition (for example, asthma or COPD), chances are that it's a good place for you to start too.
• Satisfaction guarantee. Because not all products work for all people, the best asthma remedies come with a satisfaction guarantee that lets you get a refund if you try it and don't see results. A solid refund policy can make it financially risk-free to experiment with a new asthma product, if cost is an issue for you.
