Contact with pets and other animals should be minimized for the asthma sufferer. While an allergy to animal hair or dander is a possible asthma complication, even those sufferers free of such allergies can experience an asthma attack caused by the dust and pollen all animals tend to carry along with them.

Even if you do not have an allergy to animals, try to limit your contact with them. If you spend time around them you may suffer from an attack. This is because of the dander, dust and dirt that is being carried in the animal’s fur. You will feel much better if you avoid contact.

Watch out for food additives, especially MSG (monosodium glutamate) and metabisulfite. These additives can cause a reaction in people with severe asthma. This food allergy often goes unnoticed because MSG can be a “hidden” additive, showing up under a variety of names. These include ingredients such as hydrolyzed protein, autolyzed yeast, and calcium caseinate.

If you are prone to attacks during allergy season, make use of over the counter allergy medications. While allergies and asthma are not the same, they do have many of the same mechanisms, and many people have both seasonal allergies and asthma. A seasonal allergy attack can compound the effects of asthma.

If you have seasonal asthma ask your doctor for an allergy test. It is possible that there are a few allergens that are causing your body to react and there are many sources to find what levels those are at. Knowing this can let you know the days to take action by staying inside, taking allergy medicine or using a sinus cleaner.

If you are a person with asthma and have persistent attacks related to allergy symptoms a medication that can be used for a long term effect is one that can be injected. Omalizumab is an antibody medication that is used to control these allergic reaction symptoms and may be recommended by your allergist.
