I'm a bit stressed out because I've been managing my bronchial asthma for 20 years using a regular puff of Forair 250 mg from Novacart, and it's worked really well for me. But I just found out they've stopped making it, and I'm starting to feel the symptoms coming back. Do you know of any alternatives I can try?

I'm wondering why I've been needing to take deep breaths every 5 to 10 minutes over the past 5 days. My x-ray and ECG came back normal, so I'm really puzzled. It's starting to affect my ability to focus at work, though I don't seem to have any issues at night. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how to stop this?
