Status Asthmaticus: You were treated with a common bronchodilator for bronchospasm, cough and wheezing secondary to asthma or asthmatic bronchitis. Lack of oxygen can have serious impacts on a developing fetus! Do you have a history of allergies, asthma or atopy? Are you exposed to particulates, diesel or toxic air contaminants? In status epilepticus uncontrolled severe asthma lasting days can be life threatening.
