Cromolyn sodium cannot be substituted for prednisolone during an asthmatic attack. Cromolyn sodium is a preventive medication that helps to reduce inflammation and prevent Asthma symptoms, while prednisolone is a corticosteroid used for its anti-inflammatory properties to treat acute exacerbations. During an asthma attack, immediate relief is often needed, which is typically provided by bronchodilators rather than preventive medications.

What happens when an asthmatic attack occurs?
I have asthma personally and it closes your air ways. An inhaler opens them back up.
Why it is more difficult to breath during asthmatic attack?
Because the airways are restricted, preventing the free flow of air into the lungs.
What is asthmatic attack?
This happens with people who have asthma. It is when someone suddenly find it hard to breathe. This is also known as flare ups or exacerbations.
Why is air flow restricted djuring an asthmatic attack?
During an asthmatic attack, air flow is restricted primarily due to inflammation and swelling of the airways, which narrows the bronchial passages. Additionally, increased mucus production can further obstruct airflow, and the muscles surrounding the airways may constrict, compounding the difficulty in breathing. Together, these factors lead to the characteristic wheezing and shortness of breath experienced during an asthma attack.
Is incense bad for your lungs?
It can be bad especially if one suffers from allergies or conditions such as asthma. The chemicals used in the incense can irritate the bronchioles and cause an asthmatic attack.
How safe is it for asthamatic and pacemaker patient to visit high altitude areas?
It is not safe: An asthmatic person has a base condition which impairs him in terms of respiratory function. High altitude air has a lower oxygen concentration which will ask for an increase in respiratory function. Low blood O2 will cause the heart to increase its BPM to compensate for the lack of O2, delivering blood into tissues in a faster rate, so that increment in BPM could produce some kind of alterations (not totally certain). Curious to say that an asthmatic person exposed to higher altitude air has a lesser chance of giving in to an asthmatic attack due to the fact that air at higher altitude has less particles that can trigger an asthmatic attack.
What is the most substituted alkene and how does its reactivity compare to less substituted alkenes?
The most substituted alkene is typically more stable and less reactive than less substituted alkenes. This is because the increased number of alkyl groups attached to the double bond provides greater electron density, making the double bond less susceptible to attack by electrophiles.
Why is it more difficuld to breathe during an asthmatic attack?
During an asthmatic attack, the airways become inflamed and constricted, leading to swelling and increased mucus production. This narrowing of the air passages makes it difficult for air to flow in and out of the lungs. Additionally, the muscles around the airways tighten, further restricting airflow and causing symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. These combined factors create significant challenges for effective breathing.
