Doctor prescribed me steroid inhaler for my post covid cough, for how long should i take it, my dr isn't available to ask now?

For until symptoms improved significantly. You may notice rebound symptoms if stopping suddenly, that's why sometimes it is a good idea to taper for few days, make sure you follow up for recommendations with your doc as soon as available.
