I was unaware that other medications could have the opposite affect of my asthma medications. I also did not know that Ibuprophren was not good for Asthma suffers, as this is the only kind of pain medication that I take. http://www.everydayhealth.com/publicsite/index.aspx?puid=e997db69-a145-4bd0-ad5d-944d45cfc52b&p=4&xid=nl_EverydayHealthAsthmaandAllergies_20080731

That is really interesting! My doctor knows that I suffer from asthma and she prescribed ibuprofen for my plantar fasciatitis. I wondered why I was feeling short of breath and a little tight lately. I wonder why she did this. I will have to look at the article and see what else I am taking that could be causing me troubles.

It will not have this affect on everyone. You should talk with your doctor about your symptoms as soon as possible.

Hi Rozie37. I was aware that other medications could react to and have opposite effects to certain medications but I don't think that I knew about the Ibuprophren not being any good for asthma suffers. I will have to try remember that one. I have such a shocking memory so hopefully I don't forget or else I will re-learn this hard cold fact about the reactions against the inhalers. Thanks for your help. I appreciate your help. Catch ya later pretty_babe

Asthema is totally curable. ALL medications are toxic. Quit taking useless medication you don't need, clean up your liver with thistle (Silymarine sp?) and enjoy good health. The doctors are in it with the pharmacytical companies to make money and not to make anyone better. Smallfoot
