Type “asthma cures” into your favorite search engine and you'll discover thousands of high-tech hucksters claiming their “all natural” cures for asthma ranging from ginger water to exotic tree bark from the Philippines. The proliferation of Web sites touting “miracle cures” for asthma and allergies that work in as little as one week dovetails with a growing interest in legitimate complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). In its 2005 report titled, Complementary and Alternative Medicine in the United States, the Federal Institutes of Medicine reports more than one-third of adults state that they have pursued some form of CAM treatment, such as herbal remedies and acupuncture.

Expectant moms know that taking care of their health has a direct effect on the health of their fetus. This is especially true for pregnant women with asthma. Proper nutrition, exercise, and rest are not the only important rules of thumb for these women. Maintaining adequate control of asthma should be a top priority for women breathing for two. But many women who are concerned about their asthma medications causing harm to their unborn child mistakenly avoid taking their medications while they are pregnant. The result is often uncontrolled asthma during pregnancy, which can lead to serious medical issues for both women and their unborn babies. What are the risks of poorly managed asthma, and which asthma medications are safe to take during pregnancy?
