I actually have an have an inhaer in my possession, which clearly lists PG as an ingredient. I have asked my GP for a PG-free inhaler, but she said that there isn't one on the lists. That they all contain PG.I thought it had been debunked that asthma inhalers contained PG?
So I can't guess who would debunk that? or why? This debunking thing is news to me. The pharma industyry is totally in love with PG , these days. . I've given up on trying to get hold of a PG-free antihistamine syrup. Every time i've found one, they've almost immediately changed the ingredients, replacing the (formally common) VG with PG. Really! If they can use PG in place of any of their old ingredients, they will. I cam only suppose that PG is dirt cheap.
Fortunately, PG hasn't had any bad effects on me when ingested. Not yet! It seems that only my lungs are sensitised to it. But I dread the day when the rest of my innards catch up!
I'm keeping my inhaler,so that i can truly say that i suffer from asthma, and, yes, I'm under prescrtibed medication for it. See? It can seriously undermine your medical credibility if you're forced to self-treat , or even do without treatment . (IThat makes you look as if your're self diagnosed) Unfortunately, the inhaler no longer good for anything else. At first, the airway-opening effect seemed to have the edge over the athma-triggering effect, but that edge has completely eroded by now.
