Mucolytics to help thin mucous. Supplementation of pancreatic enzymes to assist in digestion. Respiratory symptoms can be addressed to open lung passages. Hydrotherapy techniques to help ease the respiratory symptoms and help the body eliminate. Immune enhancements can help prevent the development of secondary infections.
