Hi LadyAngel,   Thank you for your question! I have to agree with the above message, that the best answer may be to remove your brother from the situation. Even if you can have him leave for a week, just to see if your asthma gets better, that will help you to determine whether that is the actual cause of your worsening asthma. That being said, you should not have to use your albuterol every day. Albuterol is a "rescue inhaler." If it's being used more than twice a week, you should have a "preventive inhaler" that you take regularly to prevent asthma attacks. I would recommend that you talk to your doctor and ask about getting a maintenance inhaler, which should help to keep your airways clear most of the time. Then if things get extra bad, you'll  still have your albuterol to provide relief. I hope this helps.   Best of luck, Casey
