Asthma: Don't Hold Your Breath

Asthma is a chronic condition, but it doesn't rule you out of the donor pool automatically.

The Green Light

You can donate if:

• You feel well today (no wheezing).
• You use a maintenance inhaler (steroid/bronchodilator).

The Red Light

You must wait if:

• You had an attack or took oral steroid pills (Prednisone) in the last 14 days.
• You have difficulty breathing at rest.
