Hi,I had gone through your query and understand your concern.

Brief answer:Asthma is a chronic disease.Modern medicine has been improved to such level that your asthma will be under good control if you follow physician's advice and follow up at regular interval.
No,you will not be addicted to the drugs because you take a very small amount of drug via inhalation.

Detailed answer:Physicians follow a step care management for asthma.That is why you need to go to your physician for follow up whenever you are advised. Under proper guidance of a respiratory specialist or general practioner, you have greater chance to have asthma under good control.Even you may remain symptom free without medicine.

Asthalin will relieve your acute attack and combilhale inhaler will prevent as well as control attack.That is why you need to use combihale inhaler regarly as advised.But be sure that you gurgle your mouth with water after taking combihale inhaler to prevent oral candidiasis.

Hope this answers your query.
Wish you good health.
