Advair is a solid second-line option for moderate to severe asthma prevention. It combines a long-acting beta agonist with an inhaled corticosteroid, giving both bronchodilation and inflammation control in one inhaler. It’s typically taken twice a day, and for many patients it does a good job of reducing flare-ups and keeping symptoms under control.
