Again, the dosage is SOOO small and the absorption is minimal, I would rethink your attitude on inhaled steroids. As a physician, I would only RARELY prescribe systemics steroids, but inhaled steroids are a great therapy for moderate to sever asthma. Sometimes people are so afraid when they hear the word it can effect their reaction to them. But in reality, they are quite benign when inhaled at standard dosages.

At any rate, best of luck to you with managing your asthma.
