Does drinking alcohol increase the symptoms of allergic asthma?
The NY Times recently ran a feature about how drinking alcohol increases allergy and asthma symptoms- http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/20/health/20real.html. Should women with asthma and/or allergies stop drinking?

1Votesanswered Jun 05, 2010 at 08:07AMI actually did some extensive research on this topic recently. I did so partly because I have asthma that does seem to be somewhat responsive to alcohol, and in part because I wanted to write about it. That said, I recently had a post published over at healthcentral.com where I discussed the link between asthma and alcohol. Check out the link below:
