Formoflo 250 in pregnancy

Hi, I am 23 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing breathing issues for the past few days, including wheezing and chest tightness, mainly at night. I was using my inhaler occasionally, about 2–3 times a month when needed. However, my symptoms seem to be occurring more frequently now. Could you please advise if I can continue using this medication or suggest any other safe options for pregnancy? Photo attached.
