Pulmonologist 's  Response
Ephedra is hardly used for treatment of asthma or chest congestion in view of the side effects. There are better drugs available in the form of inhalers. You may change your inhaler eg take serflo 250 which will control your symptoms well. You may consult a pulmonologist for full advice on treatment.
