Struggling with asthma and one of the things I’ve noticed is drugs/supplements in pill form (including prednisone) make my breathing worse. At first I suspected an allergy but completely different compounds with different inactive ingredients trigger similar difficulty. Inhaled drugs seem to help but a number of times pills (antibiotics, omeprizole, prednisone, etc.) have triggered rapid worsening of breathing difficulty. Anyone else ever experience this?

What has your doctor suggested? It seems that your sensitive to medications!
You don’t happen to suffer from reflux do you? If so, and you’re drinking fluids to help you to take your tablets that might trigger breathing problems.
You can react to individual drugs, but I find that I can react to some medications because of the fillers which they use. (See list of ingredients). Corn is one which can cause me problems and it can be listed as maize, starch or glucose. Also lactose. So it is worth reading the leaflet. I can't take flu vaccine as I am allergy to hen's eggs.
Hope you work out what is aggracating your system.
