Some of my mucus busters are:
<br />albuterol (like Eric mentioned)
<br />guaifenesin (like Debra mentioned)
<br />ibuprofen (anti-inflammatory that helps me with mucus, though my pulmonologist doesn't see it)
<br />yoga moves that involved inversion (like postural drainage, but more severe)
<br />traditional chest PT by my husband who was a drummer in high school and college (he did also have one training session by an RT too
