I'm struggling with my asthma and my doctor's advice isn't quite working for me. At first, it was mild so I was using the Duolin 2.5 and Budecort 0.5mg, but things have gotten worse lately. Now, I'm finding myself relying on the nebulizer nearly every day, and it's just so time-consuming. I'm really hoping you can suggest some rotahaler capsule options to try instead. Plus, I'm worried about how severe my asthma has becomeare there any remedies or treatments that might help improve my situation?
