I've never heard of Symbicort triggering a gag reflex, so my first question is did someone show you exactly how to use the inhaler? Sometimes technique is a huge issue and people don't get the full effects because they're using the inhaler improperly. It's worth checking. Symbicort, like all meds, does have some side-effects, but none that occur only on weekdays and not on weekends. :) Symbicort and Advair are the most prescribed meds in their class, and millions of people use one or the other every day. They do work for most folks.
