I had been using this med for 25 years (back when it was called Aerobid). It worked great for controlling my asthma and I did not have any side effects (yes it tasted bad but I just rinsed mouth after taking it). Unfortunately it is no longer being manufactured. I don't know if any of the other meds are going to work for me-have tried a few with no luck so far.
