Is one albuterol Inhaler the same as another?
I am taking a ProAir HFA Inhaler..

Here is a pic, and I have no healthcare now for the time being... I have to wait another month. My inhaler ran out... SO, My grandma was going to send me one of hers. My question is, is one albuterol inhaler the same as another, if they both contain 200 metered doses? She has another kind, and she is sending it to me. Can I use that safely? I can not "go talk to my doctor" because I have no health care. I do not wish to pay another 56 dollars for an inhaler. But I will die without it. LOL. I know how dumb. I normally pay 10 dollars for one. I just can't afford 56 bucks for an inhaler. What to do?
OH And I am 20, and have Asthma.
I do not smoke.
Mine says 8.5 but let me mention I have used almost 12 different brand of inhalers, because I am a kaiser member and they insist on buying the cheapest product. So, although they have all been albuterol, they have all been different.
I am in college, so I am on my parents healthcare through their work, but my dad was not informed of the "turn in date" for information for healthcare, so they dropped me, and then he talked to HR, and they said they would fix it , and we just got a letter from Kaiser, saying they got the enrollment application, but its incomplete... I hate HR. They did our App.
