An asthma attack can be sudden and dangerous. The most important thing to remember is not to panic. Having a plan to deal with an attack will help reduce your fear.
Instructions
STEP 1: Know the warning signs of a life-threatening asthma attack: your lips or fingernails look blue and chest is tight, or you're sweating profusely, unable to talk or are gasping for breath. STEP 2: Consult with your doctor so you know ahead of time exactly what medications you must keep on hand for an asthma attack. STEP 3: Put together a written plan, with the help of your doctor, outlining exactly how you'll handle an asthma attack if and when it occurs. STEP 4: Include in the plan the levels of symptoms and medications you'll need for those levels. STEP 5: Write the names of the medications down, the dosages you'll need, where you keep them and how to use them. STEP 6: Keep the phone number of your doctor on your list. STEP 7: List emergency phone numbers, as well, including that of the nearest hospital. STEP 8: Place the plan in a central place where it's easy to find at a moment's notice, and tell anyone who spends time with you where the plan is located. STEP 9: Have a copy of the plan at work and in your purse or wallet in case you have an asthma attack away from home. STEP 10: Keep your peak flow meter handy. Know how to use it and what the measurements mean. Tips & Warnings
Some asthma sufferers wear a Medic Alert bracelet.
Go to the emergency room immediately if you have any doubt about the severity of your attack. It's always better to be safe than sorry.
If you have any questions or concerns, contact a physician or other healthcare professional before engaging in any activity related to health and diet. This information is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment.
