Nebuliser or inhaler

2017-12-03 07:53:20
In general I manage my asthma quite well but as I get sick often usually with a bad cough my asthma can suddenly be bad and not well controlled. I can have asthma symptoms for 1-3 days without the inhaler doing anything. I was wondering whether a nebuliser may work better than the inhalers I take? Which is better and which should I use/get?
