    If you have an allergic asthma, then you need to be a combination (one or all) of oral steroids, anti-histamine, and anti-leukotriene. Long-term beta-agonists are not recommended on their own now without being in combination with steroids (such as in Advair).

    Exercise-induced asthma is a little more tricky. However, there is evidence that if you have a mild short workout and then rest a little before you go on and play/excercise, it will help.

    Intal/cromolyn sodium has proven to be very effective with exercise induced asthma
