There are different codes for the different types of Asthma, but the question does not specify which type. Therefore, the ICD-9-CM diagnosis code would be:

Asthma, unspecified: 493.90

There is no combination code for steroid dependent asthma, so this would require two diagnosis codes to describe: 493.90 + V58.65, Long term (current) use of steroids.
