Question

I'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and I've been using Foracort 200 puff for a couple of months now because of my shortness of breath. I've been doing 1 puff in the morning and another in the evening. I'm starting to feel better and don't have any breathing issues now. Can I cut back to just taking a puff in the morning? I've been checking my peak flow meter at home.

Question

I'm someone who's been dealing with wheezing for over 20 years now. It's not extremely serious, but I've been using inhalers occasionally. I'm really hoping to stop relying on them. I haven't faced a major attack in a couple of years, just minor discomforts where the inhaler comes in handy. Is there a way I can stop using inhalers for good? I've tried ayurveda before, but it didn't quite work and I ended up stopping it. What else can I do?
