My mom's been dealing with asthma for the last 35 years and used to rely on rotacaps inhalers, but lately, she hasn't been feeling well and is experiencing frequent asthma attacks. Shes needing to use nebulization every couple of hours now. Could you offer any suggestions or advice on what we might do?
