I've been dealing with asthma since I was a kid and used to take Aerocort Rotacap. But a bit ago, my doctor switched me to Formoflo 250 and it's been working well. I'm 22 now, but starting from 2016, I just can't seem to stay healthy. I'm always getting sick, and each time I go to the hospital, the docs keep giving me antibiotics. I'm worried and not sure what my next step should be. Any advice?
