This page contains a listing on the most common asthma drugs including the possible side effects and serious health risks associated with their short term and long term use.

If you are currently taking asthma medication and are experiencing side effects, you should know that there really is a safe, natural and effective drug-free alternative. This is what the billion dollar drug companies don't want you to know about. Read what a Doctor has to say about the Dramatic Asthma Relief Report:

"I purchased your Asthma Report last year and I've had great success with it. Again, blessings to you for sharing this. For a number of years, each fall, I would get severe asthma attacks on a few occasions each season. At first I would go to the hospital where they would pump me up with prednisone, then have to be on it for a week. For the last few years, I have just had a prescription and used it as necessary w/o hospital visits. I've not had to take even 10 mg of prednisone since starting this! Since I practice alternative medicine and didn't like to have to use the drug, period, it was enlightening to see your article and put the information to use. Thank you!" Dr. Cathy Kush, West Chicago, Illinois.

Hi there! Thanks!! I have been meaning to email regarding your Asthma Relief Report. My asthma is almost totally gone and I am no longer on ANY asthma medication. (In fact I stopped my asthma meds after a few days on the supplements). It is a HUGE deal that I am not on asthma drugs because as I said in my earlier email I was on Advair 500, Flovent 220, Xopenex (nebulizer), Pulmicort (nebulizer) and Singulair. I was on these drugs since Jan 2006 and none of them helped me as much as the supplements. And the drug side effects on my voice were really bad. I haven't had to use my rescue inhaler (albuterol, generic), once! And it is so great to not be on these drugs because my voice is in great shape!! By the way, I'm an opera singer- on June 24th 2007, I will be giving a Soprano Recital, accompanied by pianist Maria Asseeva and the MUSON Center ORCHESTRA at the MUSON center in Onikan, Lagos, Nigeria. So THANK YOU very much for your asthma report. Chinwe Enu, MD. USA

"My name is Yvette and I live in California. I just had to email you and let you know that within 1 1/2 hours of taking the supplements that I finally got relief. I have been in bed for most of the entire month of October and the med's were making me so sick. Well, it's been nearly a week since I've been taking the supplements and I have to say "it's just too good to be true"!!! I feel great, my breathing hasn't been this good in a long time. My energy is great, I feel strong, I can think clearly, I can run up my stairs and I can sing again. What an awesome experience to get this well from a natural substance with positive side effects. I have been practicing holistic and alternative medicine for about 20 years and nothing has given me relief like this. Thank God because my body really rejected the drugs and inhalers, plus mentally I was losing my ability to cope. I have been off of all the drugs since the second day I started this and I feel great. I am really looking forward to my check-up appointment with my asthma doctor so I can throw the drugs back at him and show him the real way to get well, through nature. Thank you to you for making sure that you share this invaluable information with the world.
