Growing up in Germany I was diagnosed with Exercise Induced Asthma (EIA). This luckily means that most of the time I'm OK, but I do have breathing issues when it is very cold or when I have a cold. In Germany I was prescribed Aarane (Sanofi) which is an inhaler with combination of Cromoglicic acid and Reprotorol hydrochloride. But then they added some sort of mint flavor.
When my lungs were tight and I inhaled it felt as if my lung size doubled. Maybe it was just the mint flavor, maybe it was for real because of this specific drug combination. But, man, I miss my mint flavored Aarane inhaler and I haven't found anything like it in the US. I don't seem to get the same relieve from the inhalers prescribed in the US (Salmeterol, Albuterol/Budesonide)
What are your experiences?
I miss my drug!

Allergospasmin contains the same ingredients as Aarane (reproterol and sodium cromoglicate) but at different concentrations. Maybe an adjusted dosage can fulfill your needs.
