Call insurance & Doc: Please call your insurance or your doc to find what your insurance plan covers. Beside advair and Flovent there are other choices like dulera, symbicort (budesonide and formoterol) which may be covered. If not please let us know. Good luck.

Provnetil: Is a rescue inhaler, only to be used as needed or pre-exercise, not on a regular basis. Flovent and advair are maintenance medications which are both to be taken on a regular basis. Please see your doctor asap if your proventil (albuterol) is not working.
