    Hi Jennifee,

    Nice to hear from you, although so sorry to hear about your Mom and her need for something to help with PF. Does she have IPF (of “idiopathic”/unknown origin) or PF? The medications currently available to help with IPF are two, Esbriet and Ofev but I’d hope her doctor would suggest these. Did they explore them with you? If it is PF, unfortunately the management of this disease is more supplemental oxygen and alternative therapies. Whereabouts do you and your Mom live? There might be some herbal remedies you can try for her, that some members find helpful (we cannot endorse their success, of course)… you can read about them here: https://pulmonaryfibrosisnews.com/forums/forums/topic/herbal-remedies-ipf/

    Goodluck and please feel free to write anytime.
    Warm regards,
    Charlene.
