It now seems that my "asthma" may be due to a lung infection. When my doctor prescribed the inhaler med, he also prescribed me doxycycline. I'm doing better on it alone. Of course things could change.
Thanks
> I used it with 80 mg of Parnate no problem. But it you are worried, you can try Singulair which is in a pill form (it's to prevent an attack so you wouldn't have to use your inhaler as often).

My internist said to ask my Pdoc about it, but I don't see her for a month, and from what I've read, it doesn't seem like the combination is guaranteed to cause hypertension -- it just might.
