Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You can use breo inhaler twice daily.
In between, you can use Ventorlin.
My suggestion is to go to your pulmonologist and get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to see for any worsening in asthma.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
