Has anyone tried Respitrol?

[Guest guest]

I'm back to googling to find anything that reduces the inflammation

associated with asthma, specially exercise-induced asthma, or cures

it. I've gotten to the point where I am not discounting information

even when it looks like a scam, but I don't want to try things without

research either.

So, has anyone tried this http://www.micronutra.com/respitrol.html ?

Thanks for passing along anything you know about it. --dawn

Singulair has been recently approved for EIA.

WEDNESDAY, April 25 (HealthDay News) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the Merck asthma and allergy drug Singulair (montelukast sodium) for people aged 15 and older who experience asthma symptoms during exercise, the company said Wednesday.

Symptoms of the condition, medically known as exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, include shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing and chest tightness.

In clinical testing involving 160 people, those who took a 10-milligram dose of Singulair two hours before exercise showed a significant reduction in symptoms compared with those who took a placebo, Merck said in a statement.

People who already take Singulair daily for other reasons, including chronic asthma, should never take an additional dose before exercise, the company warned.

Side effects reported during clinical testing included headache, ear infection, sore throat and upper respiratory infection.

Singulair is already approved to treat asthma in people 1 year and older, and for seasonal allergy symptoms in adults and children 2 years and older.

Yes, I try not to take too many drugs, but I have been taking

Singulair (my only consistent prescription) for more than a decade.

It does help me breathe, but does not make it so that I can go any

further, faster, or longer with exercise (and I cannot go far, fast or

long). Thanks. --dawn.

It's actually Risperidone (Risperdal) not respitrol that's for

Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder.

Ah, thanks for the clarification, . I was writing it off as

irrelevant to my asthma.
