I took azithromycin daily for 3 years. Glad this shit didn’t happen then.
Fortunately none of my drugs have shown up on any shortage lists.

I have one inhaler worth about 93 doses from my folks, two from my doctor with vacation override (200 each), and my co-worker's filling her prescription for me, so that'll be another 200. And I have a prescription of pills that keep me from needing the albuterol nearly as much. I think on this front at least I'm going to be okay for awhile.

Advair isn’t really a rescue inhaler. It’s a long acting steroid.

Yup.The advantage is that you shouldn't have systemic side effects of chronic steroid use.

Yes. It's really a "stabilizing" treatment for a chronic condition.

Some cube rat at the FDA, after reading this, raised his head and told the guy in the next cubicle, "Hey, Bill! Add "asshole" to that list of unexpected side-effects for hydroxychloroquine".

Ha!
No I was on Advair. And have documentary evidence of being an asshole before then - even on TNCR.
