Yay!!! I am so glad he is going so much better!!! Is it a rescue inhaler or a daily medication? Danny has both and they are both used twice daily.... :/ They are pretty much out of options for him because he is maxed out on everything...if it keeps him breathing, we keep doing it. :/

he takes Quvar 2 a day, its an inhaler, never heard of a rescue inhaler. new to the whole inhaler thing, my son had a nebulizer since 2 yrs old.

There are daily, preventative medications that work to reduce inflammation and such... Then there are rescue inhalers that are used to relieve asthma attacks. A daily medication won't stop an asthma attack but a rescue inhaler (usually albuterol or pulmicort) works for that purpose.

^ditto!

I'm glad to hear he is doing better..

he has the nebulizer with pulmocorte and albuetrol as needed if he has an asthma attack or if nothing works we take him to er * knock on wood* all is good now so i'm praying it stays that way.
