How often can you really use rescue inhaler, and it be safe without having to go to Dr or er room ?

I think you need a rescue inhaler with a dose counter, that's the best way to know for sure how much medication is left. Otherwise you need to start counting doses manually. If there's no med in the inhaler, than it won't work and you will eventually have to go to the Dr. or ER.
