In a study published in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, a team from Japan has found a potential cure for asthma in traditional medicine. In particular, they looked at Shin’iseihaito, a traditional herbal medicine usually prescribed for rhinosinusitis, and its efficacy in treating asthma and its related symptoms.
The authors concluded that Shin’iseihaito could be used to treat asthma in patients with upper airway diseases.
