Hi spacecat1210 !She has respitory problems
so I wanted to know if althea is safe for cats... Or is inula helenium any better??

You'll notice that there are no suggested dosages in that article......one reason: those would be recommended for each individual patient by the prescribing Vet.Herbal Treatments
There are some herbs known to improve respiratory function that have been effective in reducing asthma symptoms in cats. Inula helenium (elecampane) and althea officinalis (marshmallow) are two herbs that have been used for centuries because of their respiratory calming properties.
