Hi, I am 20 years old and im asthamatic. I have undergone treatment and have been better for about two years after which it has started again. My doctor had prescribed me levolin as an emergency medication ,budate as my regular medication along with a tablet of montair lc every night(tablets for two weeks). The montair lc make me feel much better and keep me covered the whole day and i do not even need to take my inhalers. But the problem is whenever i try to skip these my symptoms come back i.e wheazing and coughing(particularly during the night). I have noticed that during this bout if i take one tablet of these,the symptoms subside in about half an hour like magic. I have been taking this drug for the past 2 months now continuosly. I am afraid that i might be dependent on them. I also do not want to take my inhalers since i am overweight and it just makes me bloated. Can i substitute the anti allergics for my inhalers. And can it be used as a long term medication. If used what could be the possible side effects to these drugs. Thank you.
