Cough variant asthma is a subtype of bronchial asthma which can be very annoying to patients but can be well controlled with proper treatment. You will need a Pulmonary function test to confirm asthma first and probably some modification in treatment
Next Steps
Regular requirement of albuterol implies uncontrolled asthma. Please get yourself evaluated by pulmonologist.
