asthma attacks

Hello Ya all. I get breathing problems. I have inhalers etc. fine with mild attacks,

but the best pill ever was the Do Do tablet, or Chest easy as it was also called.

It gives such instant relief when the attack is very serious but it is no longer available.

I never overdid it, and kept my last two pills in reserve for over a year, but now I am out. Has anyone out there a secret cache?. or an alternative source .

No health professional seems to take the absence of this wonder drug seriously.

Several friends who relied on these (cheap) pills have not survived !

Yours hopefully. Cookie

You need to talk to your GP. DoDo is theophylline - it used to be just ephedrine, but it changed after bad press about it. Your GP may be able to give you something similar.
