The Role of Relievers
If your doctor has given you a physical examination and determined that you have exercise-induced asthma he or she may recommend that you use your reliever medication 10 to 20 minutes before you begin exercising. This can help reduce the likelihood that symptoms associated with exercise-induced asthma will flare up.
