If you really want to stop smoking and alcohol, you should and would stop it.
There'll be a price to pay but if you have the conviction, u won't need any medical intervention in order to get over it.
Although, if ur alcohol history is chronic, u might need medical attention
But not for Smoking.
Next Steps
Stop smoking within a month. Replace your cigarettes with the nicotine lozenges. And stay prepared for the craving. If u can't handle your craving, it means u r not yet totally willing to leave smoking

You should try Ayurvedic medicines. Here we have medicines to help your deaddiction process and medicines to take care of asthma as well.
But deaddiction has to happen under the guidance of a deaddiction counselor. Visit the counselor first and then come to Ayurveda for treatment
