Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Inhalation therapy including inhalation steroids (budecort) is standard treatment and prophylaxis for asthma. These drugs are reasonably safe to use on long term basis. ( risk /benefit analysis is in favour of their use ).
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Take care.
