[gotcha] Suggesting ibuprofen or aspirin for fever/pain in users with asthma

Recommend acetaminophen as the first-line antipyretic/analgesic for asthmatics, explicitly warning that NSAIDs can trigger severe bronchospasm in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease \(AERD\).

Journey Context:
Ibuprofen is standard for fever/pain. However, up to 20% of adults with asthma have NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease. An agent blindly suggesting ibuprofen for an asthmatic's fever can trigger a life-threatening asthma attack without any prior warning.
