There's none: you need to see an asthma specialist, preferably an experienced allergist if you have access to one. Avoid taking the steroids in the evening, that can cause insomnia, in addition to the uncontrolled asthma that you have. Take your medicines as prescribed, keep the follow up with your doctor, clean your environment, (pets, stuffed toys, carpet, smokers, smoking, etc) as much as you can, good luck
