Breathlessness on exposure to dust, smoke, fumes, perfumes etc.

According to Dr. M. T. Newhouse’s asthma guide if any of the above two is ‘yes’, the child may have asthma. If more than two of the above are ‘yes’- the diagnosis of asthma is highly likely.

Duration of Treatment Required:

Parents are worried to find their child labelled as ‘ASTHMATICS’ or ‘REACTIVE AIRWAY DISEASE’. Reactive Airway Disease may be defined as tendency to catch cold & cough frequently with breathlessness, but till the time the diagnosis of asthma is not confirmed, doctor prefer to call it ‘RAD’. The problem lies in the incurability of the whole situation despite the best medication. Allergies are deep seated & difficult to remove. Allergies are mostly constitutional & can be attributed to the genetic makeup of a person. Most patients with ‘asthma’ or ‘reactive airway disease’ are born with a predisposition to catch cold easily. Our homoeo-herbal treatment is specially formulated & tested to alter the immune state of the patient so that the genetic predisposition to catch cold is removed for good. Thousands of asthma patients have been benefited & relieved by our homoeo-herbal combination across the country and are now living normally after ‘asthma resolution'(see our patient reviews).

Due to the deep seated nature of asthma & allergies the time taken varies largely from patient to patient. Most patients start responding from the second month of medication. Severe cases take about 6-8 months to start responding to our treatment. Once improvement sets in, the severity and frequency of the episodes start decreasing steadily till the patient improves substantially in due course of time. Some find total relief and ease of life in one & half years whilst others need treatment for 2 & half to 3 years. In the later period of treatment the patient is directed to take all foods he/she was allergic to (e.g.; cold food/fish/eggs/bananas/curd etc) and also exposure to previously aggravating situations ( eg-running/ascending stairs/exertion/heat & cold variations etc). Care is taken to see that allergy does not transform & hide to take another form (eg- urticaria/skin rash etc). In patients with elevated IgE levels the levels often sober down to normal limits but in many patients the IgE levels do not fall down but the symptoms stop troubling the patient, probably due to epigenetic changes induced by the medicines.

The route of positive medicine action should take Dr.Hering’s law of cure, ie: from above downwards, from within outwards, from more important to less important organs and in the reverse order of appearance of symptoms.

During the treatment course if the patient suffers an acute attack, the patient can freely use allopathic medicines to get relief from the acute symptoms without discontinuing our medicines. (eg-bronchodilators during acute dyspnoea/ anti-histamines during acute allergy attack/ antipyretics during fevers etc, but duly prescribed by a chest specialist. Our research based medicines are formulated to antidote many obstacles to recovery, namely-immunity depressing nature of strong drugs.
