    The doctor you see now should know everything about you, including all medications prescribed for you. Speak to your doctor about what medicine to take, rather than deciding for yourself. Asthma is dangerous and should always be taken seriously.

    You should have an inhaler that feels right for you, so either let the doctor get mad or find another doctor. I agree that some of them taste terrible. The doctor gave you samples so it's no big deal to try others, or go back to what worked best for you before. Take some charge of your treatment and stand up for yourself. Or you can just sit in your chair with your machine and albuterol.
