Asthma homeopathic medicine detractors who say that it doesn't doesn't work at least have to admit that it is totally safe. That is because all poisons used are so weak that you could take a hundred times the correct dose and it would still be too weak to poison you. Ordinary doctors laugh and say that it is too weak to do anything, but it can still cure things that they can't cure.
The FDA was started to suppress competition from Homeopathic doctors, because they were healing things that normal doctors couldn't. I see that as a resounding vote of confidence from the FDA because they are not worried about competition that doesn't work.
Homeopathy can still heal asthma sometimes, and so can herbs. Dad was an impatient homeopath, and he always expected homeopathic cures in less than an hour, so if you get the right remedy for you, expect the results to be dramatic.
In the UK it used to be the law that you could only qualify as a homeopath after you had qualified as an ordinary GP. It follows that homeopathic doctors always knew more about curing you than common doctors.
I still believe that prevention is better than cure, but if you get the right remedy the cure can be dramatic (how does half an hour sound?)
That is the problem. Choosing the right homeopathic medicine for asthma is complicated. I've recently discovered a homeopathic specialist who is prepared to do online consultations. That means that you don't have to go through the complications of choosing the right homeopathic medicine. In a personal message to me Deb said "Right now people just see my number on the page and phone me from all over the world wanting to see if I work 'long distance' and I do. "
I'll give you some examples below of asthma remedies, but a good homeopath studies the patient as much as the list of remedies. You and I could have identical symptoms, but I could be a dirty, slovenly, untidy character and you could be a compulsive straightener (a book must be aligned with the edge of the table, not at an angle.) and a different remedy would be prescribed for you and for me.

The beauty of homeopathic remedies is that they can't poison you. So if you want to treat yourself, and recognize one of the symptoms as your own, you won't harm yourself. You may not cure yourself, but you won't harm yourself. I personally treat myself for any problem for which I recognize the remedy, but I have some of my father's homeopathic textbooks. You would be better to see a good homeopathic doctor (one who specialized after qualifying as a G.P.)
My sister's life was saved by homeopathy from croup, which sounds like an extremely severe asthma attack that stops you breathing completely. Years later she told a conventional doctor that she had had croup. He said "I'm surprised you're still around. I only know one cure for it." She named the homeopathy medicine and he replied "Yes, that's the one!" That was a startling endorsement from a medical doctor who saw homeopaths as competitors.
There is a natural remedy for asthma that combines both herbs and homeopathy. I'm sure you'll have guessed by now that I don't have much faith in any one remedy working for every attack of asthma, so here is what I like about this product. It has a two month money-back guarantee, so if it doesn't work for you just get your money back. If you ask your local pharmacist for a refund, be prepared for some rough language! Also, because I live in Australia I'm pleased to notice that they can send remedies from the USA to Australia in less than a week.
I still think that the right lifestyle to avoid asthma is better than medical treatment.
