This inhaler is like laxative. It'll make you rely on it and unable to overcome the problem. Once you started to rely on using laxative as a solution- you will struggle more to have natural bowel movement thereof. For asthma, to avoid reliant on an inhaler means to avoid having an attack - daily onion intake is your solution - and (a must) a diet change ---- free of cold, sugary and inflammatory food like chili (your lung will be inflammed the next day).

The pharmacist told him his insurance no longer covered his inhaler. The new price: $539. No alternatives were offered. Cole walked out, chose rent over medicine, and five days later suffered a fatal asthma attack.
Cole Schmidtknecht, 22, of Appleton, Wisconsin, had chronic asthma since birth. He managed it with a daily Advair Diskus inhaler costing $66 per month through his employer's insurance. On January 10, 2024, Walgreens told him his insurance no longer covered it. The new price: $539. No alternative was offered.
Cole left without his medication and relied on an old rescue inhaler. Five days later, he had a severe asthma attack. His roommate rushed him to the ER, but his heart stopped before they arrived. He never regained consciousness and was pronounced dead on January 21 after six days on a ventilator.
His family sued Walgreens and OptumRx, a UnitedHealth subsidiary, alleging the price increase violated Wisconsin law and that no notice or affordable option was provided. Months later, inhaler makers capped out-of-pocket costs at $35.
