Hello,

these drugs are considered safe all over the world (including the US). Symbicort is licensed in the US (at least that's what I found on the FDA website) and there are a lot of FDA approved albuterol formulations. Since these drugs are working for you there is no reason to change your regimen.

I hope I've answered your query. Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Kind Regards,
