yes, it is a possibility. the dependency of your lungs on the medicine may make it harder to breath, see your doctor and talk to them about getting a breather
NO, if you have asthma bronchitis can make it worse. If you have asthma for years you can have COPD, but bronchitis will not CAUSE asthma, it may experate it.
I have always wondered about that and I have to say probably Yes. I use to get bronchitis in my 30’s and now I have asthma in my 40’s. As far as the medicine creating a dependency in your lungs probably not. Just take care of yourself. You might be more susceptible to pneumonia if you get bronchitis to much. I hope you don’t smoke. Follow your Doctors orders and ALWAYS carry your Inhaler. You never know when you’ll need it. It has saved my life time and time again. My Blessings to you.
No my dear, asthma cannot be caused by any medicine dependence. If a normal person takes asthma medicine, the medicine will go waste. It will not cause dependence or asthma. asthma medication is not like marijuana or heroin that it may cause addiction or dependence.
