Brief Answer:
Hello. Yes it is better for persistent asthma

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through your query. So it is important to know the correct diagnosis and the severity of asthma based upon symptoms and pulmonary function tests. I assume that your doctor has made a right diagnosis. Levolin is usually given for very mild, intermittent type of asthma. However, if it becomes persistent or moderate to severe, then steroid inhalation is added to control it. Seroflo contains steroid. Dosing is adequate, and the power of drug can be increased as per the response.
Kind regards
