My husband's seasonal allergies are so bad in the spring that without his inhaler he'd wind up in the ER. This new law scares me, I'm very concerned for my loved ones so I signed the petition. The research I've done indicates that these new inhalers are not suitable replacements. Good luck to you! My mom has COPD and she depends on her rescue inhaler.
