Asthma is one of the serious forms of respiratory diseases causing economic losses and high mortality in the world. RESP AID is an innovative formula developed by NHV Natural Pet Products to support respiratory disorders and bronchial infections. It is composed of 6 commonly used herbs: Coltsfoot (Tussilago farfar), Marshamallow (Althaea officilanes), Plantain (Pantago major), Mullein (Verbascum Thapsus), Horehound (Marrubium vulgare) and Licorice (Gycyrrhiza glabra). These herbs have been widely used in asthma treatment and can reduce coughing and sputum production, or anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. However, the effects of these herbs in asthma have not been fully elucidated. Based on the theoretical benefits of RESP-AID, we will conduct a series of studies to explore the efficacy, safety and mechanism of action of RESP-AID.
