Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Aerocort is meant for use in the prevention of asthma. It is not used for the cough and cold but in asthmatics to prevent recurrent asthmatic attacks.
If you are an asthmatic, then you can use it long term. The benefits of preventing recurrent attacks are greater than any associated risks.
I hope this helps
