asthma
"Although the thought of using a steroid is pretty iffy in my mind, prednisone is a strong anti-inflammatory drug that I have been prescribed several times after asthma attacks. It always seems to work although my asthma continues to be a problem, it certainly helps me breathe a whole lot better. I don't use my inhaler as much and I can sleep through the nights without waking up in a fit of coughing."
