If it were me I'd keep taking whatever inhaler I'm prescribed for controlling my asthma. I hope you get some supportive replies from more knowledgeable members than I. Good for you in going to a walk-in centre!

Hi Dibster, I have never been advised to stop my usual asthma treatments when taking steroids and antibiotics. Maybe the extra coughing will help release some of the gunk that’s on your chest??

Hope you feel better soon!
