Asthma inhailers.

This morning I ran down to the chemest to pick up a 'puffer' asmol. I am 16 weeks pregnant, for the past few nights I have been haveing 'attacks' wezzing, coughing, tightness, itchy chin, ect for hours, last night it was 8 untill 12am and then I woke again just after 4 and keeped going untill about 7am, so this morning I thought I cant keep not sleeping, and depriveing my baby of oxygen for mulitpule hours, so this morning I told the chemest what has been going on, how far along I am ect, ect, and she gave me 'asmol' and told me to talk to my doctor about risks and benifits, but I cant see her till another day, and im sure this is going to happen again tonight as it has every other, I cant find anything on the internet about risks, I was just woundering if any of you ladys know about asmol or other inhailers?

I plan to use it as a last resort, and only one puff, but I just worry.
