if u have and Asthma attack it is hard to breathe and sometimes u tighten up it is so bad but if u are not that bad u have a blue inhaler and that is called a ventollin inhaler. if u are severe then u need the purple one and that is stronger then u have a preventer which is brown but it doesnt get rid of asthma it helps control it. so that is why u need an inhaler to help control asthma and if u don't control ur asthma u could die

∙ 13y agoAsthma is a chronic disease characterized by inflammation of the lungs. The key ingredient in Asthma inhalers is albuterol sulfate which is a bronchodilator.
