The ruling on using asthma spray through the nose or mouth for a fasting person during the day in Ramadan

Question
What is the ruling on using asthma spray through the nose or mouth for a fasting person during the day in Ramadan?
Answer
Breaking the fast; because the medicine in these inhalers reaches the stomach through openings that are considered significant in Sharia, which are the mouth and nose. Therefore, anyone who cannot do without it during the day in Ramadan should use it and continue fasting, then make up for it later.
