Those things do NOT help my asthma, in fact they make it worse!! Where can I get a real inhaler? How can I fight this? > Yo, WTF is going on!!?

There are some small, hand held models out there now that run off batteries or car batteries. The Omron models is quite popular I understand for people with CF that I know. http://www.omronhealthcare.com/enTouchCMS/app/viewCategory?catgId=38 You would need a prescription for that type of albuterol of course. They aren't all that expensive any longer. >> Yo, WTF is going on!!? Pharmacy says they only got the CFC free inhalers >> and that's ALL that's going to be available after a certain date!

They're much more expensive than an inhaler, as is the solution. And the solution expires much more quickly than the inhalers. :( I dunno what the heck the FDA is thinking on this! > They're much more expensive than an inhaler, as is the solution.

Actually, it was EPA. >> They're much more expensive than an inhaler, as is the solution.

Don't you think it is worth trying? At least then you would know. |
