The only one's I use are Ventolin and Flovent. So, before I go diving its OK for me to take these? Just right before going into the waters?
Kind regards,

I use Ventolin before I dive (at least when I remember to take it). So far, I haven't had any attacks. Just watch out for an increased heart rate (a side effect of beta-2-agonists). Then again, my asthma is only mild, intermittent BA - so the safe answer would be to read the package insert and consult your primary care physician so that he can correlate your asthma with any other pre-existing medical conditions.
