I just remembered, Asthma Nephrin contained a small amount of Chloroform.
Have you considered that your daughters disease may significantly worse than yours ever was?
active incredient per google search.
primatine mist--- epinephrine
asthmanefrin----- epinephrine
that may be the makeup now but it was not 54 years ago.
I’ve thought for a long time that aspirin ought to be helpful in case of an asthmattack. I don’t know if it helps that much or not, but if I feel like I’ve got bronchitis I always take an nsaid.
The trouble with the modern world, and I mean the medical establishment and the media, is that they would deny the entire class of people with asthma this treatment out of fear that someone would take it and cause a worse attack. If you are someone who can tolerate aspirin, take it. If not, don't.
I suspect you’re unusual. I read a suggestion once that if one thinks they’re getting sick but aren’t sure, they can try doing some exercise. Usually ten minutes of exercise will make you feel better if you’re just fatigued or stressed, but if you’re getting sick it will make you feel worse.
When I was a child, I was prescribed Quadranal for asthma. it worked, but contained barbiturates. I remember I didn't like the effects.
Later I used OTC epinephrine until my D.O. informed me that they can be bad for the heart.
Now I use Advair and have been asthma free for years.
I avoid Acetaminophen like the plague. If I want my liver to fail, it better be from alcohol.
