Oh, man I am so seriously tired of being sick. I just recently got over bronchitis - and luckily I didn't listen to my doctor! I managed to persuade my doc to give me antibiotics but she was more intent on prescribing me an inhaler. I don't even HAVE asthma!

  • Oh.... that inhaler comment was very ignorant. They give inhalers to make breathing easier. They normally prescribe them to people who experience shortness of breath. I just went the a doctor yesterday and was diagnosed with Bronchitis. She gave me antibiotics and an inhaler as well. Although, I don't really feel like I need the inhaler. I breathe fine, it's just sometimes I get coughing fits.

  • @XIXNayRXIX no it's not. giving an inhaler to someone who has bronchitis is pointless because it doesn't help because it's made for people with asthma. an inhaler will not get rid of the mucus in your lungs and bronchi tubes.

  • my doc gave me both inhalers and antibiotics for bronchitis. inhalers help open up the lungs. they're not just for athsma. i think all docs prescribe that.

  • Inhalers have a steroid in them. They are made to decrease inflammation and increase the airway. If you imagine a straw that you breathe through and then squeeze that straw and still try to breathe through it its not going to be very easy. The inhaler forces the airway back open. YES it does help. Inhalers are not JUST for bronchitis.

  • my doctor also gave me an inhaler

  • @GemRubyDiam0nd Why do you think inhalers are only for people with Asthma? As I said, they prescribe it to people who have trouble breathing... That may be caused any number of illnesses.

  • Bronchitis sucks ass. I can't even sleep. I just end up coughing my brains out. -_-

  • Its standard to get an inhaler for bronchitis....

  • I have asthma and just got bronchitis

  • i would
