Doctor's Prescription might be harmful for me?

I went to my family doctor with the complaint of producing more sputum than normal for 3 years. I thought there might be something wrong with my lungs. However, I have no breathing problems. The doctor said that he was listening to my lungs with a stethoscope and that he was fine and said I don't need an X-ray. But he gave me the nasal spray medicine. When I said that there was no change after 1 week, he prescribed different drugs. I was a little scared when I saw that these drugs are used for asthma patients. That's why I wanted to get your opinion before using it.

pms- Fluticasone HFA

teva- Salbutamol HFA

He stated that if these drugs also did not work, I might be allergic to dust and he could suggest medications for it.
