I'm traveling right now and I have asthma, but I forgot to bring my Foracort 100 medicine. I do have Tiova, Seroflo, and Salbair with me because my mom uses them. Can I take any of these instead of Foracort? Please let me know as soon as you can.

Use Seroflo as a substitute for Foracort. It will help with both controlling inflammation and keeping your airways open. Use Salbair for immediate relief if you're having difficulty breathing or experiencing an asthma attack.
