UPI?: Not sure what u mean by upi. Are u using inhaler properly—10-15 min before exercise? Have u tried using a spacer (e.g. Aero-chamber) to optimize inhaled dose? How long & how intensely do you exercise? Do u have symptoms other than when u exercise? If so, may need regular regimen to treat asthma— inhaled corticosteroid, long-acting broncho-dilator, (short-acting for rescue), etc. See doc.
