Usually Asthma is chronic disease. It will not kill you directly as such. You have very good drugs to manage the asthma. But there is one condition called as status asthmaticus. It is life threatening condition and demand urgent medical attention. Rarely the patient gets severe asthmatic attack due to some substances, which are inhaled. The powder of salicylic acid and penicillin are noted examples. It can kill the patient, if not treated urgently.
