I am diabetic and high blood pressure and taking medication. for asthma doctor has prescribed advair and albutrol puff and oxygen. I want to know is there any medication alternate to oxygen [/INST] Hi, You are taking adverse, albuterol puff with oxygen, it is a very good asthma treatment what your doctor is giving. You have also DM'd and HTN with your age 72 years. If your doctor is giving oxygen then you might also have chronic bronchitis and there is no alternative to oxygen when you are having breathing difficulty even at slight exertion. There are other potent steroids inhalers available in market with antiallergic Chat Doctor. You can discuss it with your pulmonologist. </s>
