My siblings have asthma, and when they have colds they take 2 puffs of both ventilin and flovent in the morning and one of each in the evening. Sometimes one before they go to bed.

Some doctors aren't great with dealing with asthma. Try what my siblings do.

Also, if you're having a productive or flemmy cough, it's from your inhalers. Something you'll have to live with until your better..

Try drinking lots of fluids (especially water and orange juice) and eat lots of fruit.
