Your question is very specific. For acute attack of asthma.you may you levosalbutamol Meter does inhaler with spacer .dose depend on severity....but it is for transient relief. Asthma is an inflammatory airway disease ...for long term symptomatic relief(if it is persistent) you have to use long acting beta 2 agonist plus steroid inhalers like formoterol+fluticasone on regular basis...dose depend on age. To prevent frequent chest infection you may require pneumococcal (once) and influenza (annually) vaccine. Better to consult with pulmonologist... For proper demonstration of metered dose inhaler technique & right choice of Chat Doctor. Thank you.
