Asthma inhaler/puffer problem
So, Today my inhaler expired and then used it when I got home. Problem is now, I still have asthma and I've already used my puffer the max amount of times they want me to. Can someone explain what the problem is?

holy crap, one time i was having trouble breathing and couldn't fall asleep, and finally my friend brought me an old inhaler at 5am. it was literally expired for YEARS but it still helped me immensely. i made a doctor appointment and got myself my own new one though after that lol. but still. your inhaler just expired today and it suddenly stopped working? not legit
Inhalers only suppresses asthma like symptoms.
I still have asthma but they only get triggered when I physically over-exert myself or have high fevers.
Figure out what your triggers are and talk to your doctor about your asthma because asthma will NEVER disappear completely.
i was told by my doctor that asthma never goes away. The symptoms may not resurface for a long time but you still have asthma so

He said expired
Thought it was obvious that man
It aint working cos you using it after the best before date
It aint effective
Get yourself a new one. Stay safe brother.[/quote]
Let me rephrase that, I bought a new inhaler.

Yeah, pretty sure a licensed medical professional is going to give you a more appropriate answer than strangers on an internet forum named after an herb.

Nah I think he means that he used the inhaler the amount of recommended times you should be using it when you get asthma.
But he's still having breathing problems.
