This is a reply to the asmanex post and this one. Get on the daily med. You won't have ANY relief from this rescue inhaler until you do. Yes, being on inhaled steriods for the rest of your life is a pain...and can POSSIBLY over time lower your immune response. However, most people don't have that problem. I've been on Flovent for about 12 years now. No problems for me.
Get your asthma under control and you'll see a real difference.
