Asthma, Maintenance
"I would personally give QVAR 80 a 10 out of 10.  I used my albuterol rescue inhaler 2-3 times a day and 1-2 in the middle of the night.  I&#039;d wake up tight-chested and wheezing for no reason, exercise gave me asthma attacks as did my animal/plant allergies, changes in the weather and even laughing.  Since being on QVAR, I don&#039;t use my albuterol at all, like once every couple of months.  That&#039;s why I was so happy for my 5 1/2 year old son when his pediatrician put him on QVAR...he only had attacks when he had a virus.  Every single cold would go directly to his chest.  However, after being on QVAR for 4 weeks (and not having had any colds, we don&#039;t know its effectiveness) he has been having the most long, dragged out and intense tantrums."
