I have asthma. I don’t use a controller ( preventer) inhaler, but I have been using my reliever inhaler more often than I used to. Is that ok?
For good asthma control, one must use the controller ( preventer) inhaler regularly, as prescribed by the doctor, rather than frequent reliever use. If one is using one's reliever inhaler too often, one should visit the doctor as it may be an indication of poor asthma control and change in medication may be required.
