For Asthma, acute "Last night was the first night I didn't wake up coughing, wheezing, and choking from not being able to breathe. When I first take the inhaler, I do experience a little weird throat irritation. It's gone within a few minutes, and then I'm fine."

For Asthma, acute "I've had asthma pretty much my whole life. I didn't have a rescue inhaler and figured I would give this a try. Big mistake! I wish I didn't take it. Within minutes, my throat was burning, and it made mild symptoms worse, and my chest felt congested. I will be returning back to the store. Don't play with my life."

For Asthma, acute "You can imagine my surprise this morning at like 4 a.m. Suffering over here, I did a Google search. I thought surely they have an OTC inhaler by now! My eyes got pretty big when I saw it was BACK! I had been wheezing and miserable all night. Throat so sore from coughing up phlegm, trying to get it to come out of my lungs. I wasted no time. Here is what I can tell you for sure: it is the Primatene Mist you remember; I am positive of that. Once again, within 4-6 seconds, I was free to breathe freely. It opens you fully up. If I were a boy still, I would run. Currently, I am sitting here writing this review, smiling, breathing again instead. Thanks, Primatene Mist. Glad it's back. Frankly, I can't tell any difference. It's the same quality and effectiveness I remember. One caveat my wife pointed out is that it's twice as expensive as it used to be, but let's get real here. If you're a fish out of water and you can't breathe, who cares? I am satisfied. IT'S BACK, FOLKS."
