What Causes Tight Sensation In The Chest And Breathing Difficulty?

I am a 27 year old male. About 6 months ago I was having tightness in my chest and some difficulty breathing when talking. I would have to stop what I was saying and take a breath occasionally. I went to a immediate care center and they diagnosed me with having bronchospasms. They prescribed me Proventil HFA and I used it for a month or so and I felt better. Now unfortunately the same problem is back and I ran out of the Proventil HFA with the container saying no refills. Is there anything similar to this that I can get over the counter or will I have to consult with my doctor?
