Suggest Medication For Asthma

I have wheezing when exhaling? One of my collegues have bronchitis and is taking antibiotics. Could it be that I have contracted it as well?

I am 25 years old, about 1,6m tall and weigh about 65kg. About a week ago I had laryngitis for which I used antibiotics and it went away.

Hello
Asthma , airways hyperresponsiveness that is secondary to inflammatory airways disease that results in recurrent or chronic episodes of wheeze ( as you have) , shortness of breath, chest tightness , cough early in the morning.
Asthma is caused by certain allergens such as mite, dust , humidity , sudden fall & rise of temperature , pests , pollen ,molds smoking , hay fodder .
So this information will be helpful for you that ASTHMA is not a contagious or infections disease .
This is an allergy related disease .
I find this answer helpful
