Taking qvar 80mcg for past 2 day and my breathing returned to normal. is it okay to stop using it for a few days to see if i can function without it?

Maintenance med: Qvar is meant to be used daily to control asthma symptoms, and is not a rescue inhaler. Suggest you talk to your doctor before attempting to discontinue it.
