"Couldn't breathe, and the doctor wasn't open. This medicine helped me breathe again in minutes :). The reason I couldn't breathe is complications from an upper respiratory infection. So happy the pharmacy suggested this."

"I take this every time I get pneumonia, which is a few times a year, and I was born with bronchitis and will have it the rest of my life. It is a true life-saver for shortness of breath caused by pneumonia. Nothing else seems to do the trick."

"First-time user. Was having a slight deep cough, which alone would've been fine, but it was accompanied by shortness of breath, wheezing, and tightness in my chest (common asthma symptoms). I haven't had this problem in years, so I asked a pharmacist. She recommended this, and one dose made a huge difference. The tightness went away, and the breathing got so much better. Even the slight cough was productive now. Definitely recommend this to anyone with the same symptoms."

"Really effective for COPD and recurring pneumonia. I actually used it occasionally a few years ago, but then due to new laws, couldn't find it anymore. I recently bought one that I noticed behind the counter at the Safeway pharmacy and remembered why I liked them so well. Works great for clearing my morning airways!"

"Bronkaid has been my go-to asthma drug since I was diagnosed with adult asthma. I've been using it on and off for over fifteen years. It works quickly and effectively with any loss of breath. One box has 60 tablets and lasts forever as you only need them to control bronchial spasms."

"I smoke way too much and get short of breath. Started to take this alongside 'Christopher's lung and bronchial,' and boy does it do the trick. I should not do this because it allows me to keep smoking without too much issue."

"New formula with pill imprint BRONK25, they basically removed the guaifenesin (Primatene Tablets had to do the same, not sure why). Anyhow, it's been a lifesaver. Have never tested positive for COVID, but started having shortness of breath episodes a few months back. My heart checks out, Dr. said my oxygen levels were fine, so I don't know what's going on. All I know is this relieves the symptoms within 20 minutes, and I feel much less panicked by the SoB symptoms."

"A few years ago, I was on an immunosuppressive medication and kept getting upper respiratory infections. This really helped me breathe better, especially at night. I've had COVID-19 twice and took this both times. I had the raspy, wet, crackling breathing, and this really helped open my airways and help my breathing. It does elevate my blood pressure, but so far, not to a dangerous level."

"This is ephedrine. It relaxes the smooth muscles in your lungs. It also speeds your heart, which causes high blood pressure. Also makes you jittery. Also keeps you awake at night. It's mainly speed, low dose, but still affects you the same. Registered Nurse."

"DO NOT USE. I was given this from a pharmacist when I was without my albuterol inhaler while on vacation. I was immediately hospitalized for symptoms of a heart attack and have since been hospitalized 3 more times for the aftereffects. I now have a disorder called dysautonomia that has caused me to faint, have heart palpitations, have extreme nausea, chest pains, inability to swallow, loss of appetite, migraines, neck pain, dizziness, etc. for over two weeks. It was only one dose of the inhaler that did this to me. Every doctor I have spoken to cannot believe that it is sold on shelves as it is extremely dangerous."

"This product is terrible. I don’t have heart problems or high blood pressure, so I took one. It didn’t seem to help, so I took another when it was time. I got so much worse. I had to go to urgent care, and my blood pressure was so high I almost had a stroke off of only two doses. I do not recommend this product, and now I’m stuck with high blood pressure ever since."

"Been suffering from asthma for a year now. I don't have great insurance or money to go. But after trying a couple of doses, I was breathing normally."

"I haven’t breathed this easily in years until I took a dose of Bronkaid! It works instantaneously, and I felt oxygen moving around my body. Thanks to the discoverer!"

"It is week two of having COVID, and I was sick and tired of not being able to breathe. I ran out of NyQuil and searched around my medicine bin for something to help. I found an old pack of Bronkaid, and my God, it was a life saver. It really helped the symptoms of COVID. 10/10 would recommend."
