I assume you're referring to adhd meds. You'd have a better chance of a reply if you ask in an asthma forum, and if you specify exactly which meds you're talking about.

I appreciate that but I'm just making conversation/curious. I have a good handle on my asthma, I'm wondering if others have found that to be the case also.

Was intrigued by a poster saying he treats his COPD with basically ibuprofen+pseudoephedrine which I find mind-boggling but it seems like it would be related to stimulant-mediated vasoconstriction.

It hasn't let to any change for me.

I don't have asthma. I have ADHD.

If I don't take my meds, I get winded very easily and I get hungry in like an hour. Feels like my metabolism is just through the roof

Asthma, no. Allergic rhinitis, yes.
