[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 191566, member: 1233"] Ragweed isn't fun. I know exactly the cough you mean. Just because you don't have an asthma diagnosis doesn't mean you might not need albuterol. The albuterol inhaler can help a LOT if you are wheezing for any reason. The cough can be an allergy-onset form of asthma. BOTH of my boys ONLY coughed for years from their asthma. The last year they both got some nasty wheezing, but this is the first time. Asthma can onset as an adult, but just because you may react not doesn't mean you will always react this way. It would be smart to call the doctor and get an inhaler though. If you have problems with the albuterol there IS a medication called xopenex - far more $$ but works better for some people, though not all. If you can't get ahold of your doctor, have Urgent Care assess the wheezing - it is nothing to mess around with. be gentle with yourself! [/QUOTE]
