Guaifenesin is probably the best OTC expectorant. However, there are other options. Increasing water intake will thin secretions, as long as there are no medical conditions that require limiting fluid intake. An increase in humidity can also help. Using, specifically, an ultrasonic nebulizer adds water to the respiratory system in a very gentle and effective way.

People with asthma have very sensitive airways that are constantly on the verge of over-reacting to asthma triggers.
