Asthma Tracker For Reliever Inhaler Use Free Download

Why do I need to keep track of my reliever inhaler usage?

Keeping track of how often you use your reliever inhaler is an essential part of Asthma management. You should ideally be seeing your Doctor, GP, or asthma nurse once every 12 months or as soon as you notice a severe or significant change in your symptoms. If this is a gradual change over time it can sometimes be tricky to work out your triggers, and therefore makes it harder to know when it’s time to call the doc.
