Magnet therapy can help. When you're having trouble breathing, put a negative magnet (very powerful magnets, not your typical refrigerator magnet) on each lung and it can help ease your breathing. For info about magnets, search 'magnet therapy.'

Garlic and Milk are also good for asthma. Garlic is also a known home remedy for many illnesses, its always good to have garlic in the house just in case you need it as a remedy for a health problem. For asthma, garlic is very helpful, cook it with milk and drink up.

Milk with garlic is a good treatment but if you don't like the garlic you can just drink a glass of warm milk. If you also have phlegm it would be better to use the lemon treatment but if you don't have phlegm, but breathing problems, milk is a very good solution.

What do you take to relieve symptoms of allergies?

Quoted from an online ezine article: Natural Herbs for Allergies - Treat Allergies Without Medication by Willhelm Williams "Modern medicine has made many advances over the years in treating allergy symptoms. Sometimes the cure may be worse than the illness. Many decongestants will lead to a dry mouth and a rise in blood pressure. Antihistamines tend to make you drowsy and groggy. Are there any natural herbs that will help treat the symptoms of allergies without all of the unpleasant side effects? The good news is that you can find many natural herbs for allergies that will offer relief from your symptoms the holistic way. Natural herbs that will actually help to prevent the symptoms rather than treating them once they start. This can be an effective way of managing many of the seasonal allergies that a number of people suffer from. I have heard about antihistamines, but what are they? Antihistamines prevent the body from producing histamines. Histamines are a chemical by product when antibodies attack a foreign substance in the body. For allergy suffers, the body has mistakenly identified a benign substance to be a threat to the body. The immune system has created an antibody to attack and destroy this threat. Histamines create the allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes and coughing, so when your body cannot produce as many, your symptoms are reduced as well."

Zyrtec (cetirizine) is classified as a second generation antihistamine.

Can you have the shingles shot if you are allergic to pencillin?

Life-threatening allergic reactions to vaccines are very rare.

The contraindications for the A-H1N1/09 vaccinations regarding allergies are to avoid them if you have an allergy to eggs, egg products, or chicken protein and if you are allergic to any of the other ingredients in the vaccines. Some vaccines are prepared with some types of antibiotics, but not penicillin (see the related question below for a complete list of ingredients in the vaccines currently approved for use in the US and UK).

Be sure to tell the person who will administer your vaccine that you have an allergy so they can determine what the best choice of vaccine would be for you and advise you on how to obtain that type if what they are administering is contraindicated in your individual case. For some people with allergies, they may also suggest that you wait for a few hours for observation after the vaccination before leaving to be sure you do not have any signs of an allergic reaction and for intervention if that should occur. Typically, allergic reactions from vaccines will occur within minutes or, at the most a few hours, of the administration.

What is the Best thing for chest congestion?

If you are congested, a type of medicine called an expectorant will help loosen the congestion so you can more easily cough it up. Many cough medicine preparations contain expectorant medication. One of the expectorant ingredients that works best for my family is called Guaifenesin. Read the label on the cough medicines and pick one with that as the active ingredient. There are also longer acting tablets with guaifenesin as the active ingredient available also over the counter called Mucinex. Both of these types of medicine have been recommended by many health care professionals during the pandemic.

If you have a morphine allergy can you take oxycodone for severe pain management?

No, you cannot. since hydromorphone is morphine with an extra oxygen molecule that allows it to pass through the blood brain barrier faster (much like heroin is actually morphine also but with an extra acetyl molecule), you will still have the same allergic reaction. try Oxycodone (percocet) or Hydrocodone (Vicodin) instead.

What are the Side effects of ALLEGRA?

I'm not a dentist but I am a doctor. I've had to use Alvogyl recently with more than one application for a long standing dry socket. I've asked numerous dentists and searched the internet for this answer. It seems that there are no known significant side effects except the possibility of delaying the overgrowth of new tissue over the dry socket to cover the exposed bone. It should therefore not be packed tightly in the socket - just enough to fill the space loosely. Hope this helps.

There are cough products that utilize a cough suppressant and an expectorant together. You can, but the efficacy of using both together has been debated by the medical community.

Taking them together means you can use for either type of cough, but it should be considered what type of cough you have if you wish to take them separately.
