I'm experiencing some chest heaviness and having trouble breathing. I already have asthma and usually use Rotacaps and Montair LC to manage it, but they don't seem to be helping right now. Could you suggest what I should do next?

I'm a 20-year-old girl dealing with asthma, and every time I use my Asthalin inhaler, it gives me tremors and a headache. I'm really concerned about these side effects. Could switching to a Ventolin inhaler help prevent them?

Yes, you can consider switching to Ventolin (salbutamol) inhaler, as it is similar to Asthalin, but some people may tolerate it better, however, since you're experiencing tremors and headaches, consult your doctor before making the switch to discuss potential alternatives, adjusting dosages, or adding medications to minimize side effects.
