Dear lybrate-user best medications are by inhaler since they're in minute microgram doses. How long and how much is best determined by a pulmonologists after methodical assessment by clinical, x-ray and spirometry. Two types are ideally used bythe international guidelines. One which controls the disease in long term while the other relieves the symptom. Medicines that control are very important and symptom reliever is required only when symptoms severe. Combination inhalers contain both. Most patients think they are habit forming which is incorrect. Chronic asthma impairs our lifestyle and efficiency at work. Control and prevent asthma should be the goal. Very few side effects such as tremor of hands, and fast heart rate happen when taken in higher doses or in tablet or syrup or injection.
