I 've been taking simbycort every year (specially in allergy season for treating cough ) .can i stop using it if i feel ok now ?

I would: If you're no longer having symptoms, why continue to expose your tissues to this corticosteroid and bronchodilator medication? You should probably taper off it gradually if you've been using it daily for a prolonged period. You can always use it as needed if symptoms recur.
