Yes, there are more natural solutions out there! 
I have suffered with bronchial conditions since a child. Pneumonia hospitalized me many times. Often given medications my body would not tolerate or I was allergic to. I am 66 years old. My entire life has been up and down. 
A few months ago I got hit again. I had been trying various herbal teas with some relief and I came across "Mullein Leaf Tea".  I looked online and behold! there were drops and tinctures I could get. So I tried Healpark's Organic Mullein Leaf Extract (3000MG)...and by the end of the first day of using the drops, the expectorant qualities it possesses had begin to work. Within 3 days I was up and around and feeling much better. 
A friend and I were talking about this and she mentioned about how some of our dogs would get sniffles or coughs, and the thought went through my head..."wonder if it's ok for dogs?"
Doing research, I found that it is wonderful for our dogs with no side effects. I was thrilled! As I read on it's good for treating Kennel cough, colds, and you can make a strong tea from it and use it for ear infections and mild cases of ear mites for our beloved pets!

Of course there will be some who cannot use it, and there are precautionary disclaimers to everything. I have included a few links so you can read about Mullein and it's uses for yourself.

The Lost Herbs also has some excellent articles/recipes for a lung cleanse with other herbs. Like myself, I am sure that there are many people who love herbal remedies rather than medication. Do be sure to check with your physician and/or veternarian. 

Have a great day!
