Is ER Visit Required After Second Asthmatic Attack In A Day Or Would Albuteral Inhaler Work Fine?
HI! I use my Advair Inhaler, 2 puffs, twice, per day, but sometimes I still have wheezing, for example, last night, about 11:00 P.M., I had an Asthma attack, so I used my Albuteral, Inhaler, two puffs, but I still felt tightness, wheezing, having a difficult time to breath! If this happens, again, tonight, should I go to the ER?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
As you are having hyper responsiveness condition of your respiratory tract infection the symptoms have increased because of the bronchoconstriction.The symptoms like wheezing and tightness of the chest are due to the constriction of the bronchus.
Adavir is a fluticasone propionate helps to relieve the symptoms as it is a bronchodilator, the albuteral inhaler also helps to improve the condition and prevents the further occurrence of the symptoms.
Thank you.
