2.  Arsenicum

As stated above, Arsenicum has some similarity to Ipecac, but the time of attacks is just after midnight. The patient has a great deal of anguish and restlessness; he cannot lie down for fear of suffocation. There is anxiety and general sweat, and if the patient drowses off he is awakened with burning pain and soreness in the chest.

3.  Nux vomica

Nux vomica is a useful remedy when the asthmatic attacks are brought on by gastric disturbances; simple spasmodic asthmas; there is some relief by belching, the patient must loosen the clothing. It must also be thought of in those who drink much coffee or liquor. Irritable bilious temperaments also correspond to the drug. 

4.  Natrum sulphuricum

This remedy has established a record in curing asthma. Its general symptoms are worse on change to damp weather. It was one of Grauvogl’s hydrogenoid remedies. Its symptoms are moist asthma, with a great deal of rattling in the chest.

5.  Antimonium tartaricum

This is a remedy used largely in a number of form by the allopathic school in asthma, and it is homoeopathic to certain cases. The great keynote for the remedy is the presence of fine mucous rales throughout the chest, finer and smaller rales than are found under Ipecac. With this remedy the chest seems full of phlegm, with inability to expectorate it.
