No, asthma and allergies are due to increased sensitivity of an individual against any antigen (object. These are a type of hypersensitivity reaction (class 5) usually mediated by immunoglobulins, ige. So, it is an innate problem.

Always gargle your mouth after usage of pump or inhaler gargling removes the drug deposition on tongue and reduces risk of fungal infection.
Candida mouthpaint for a week and oral fluconazole once a week for 4 weeks can help treat fungal infection.

There is no cure to copd and asthma....more
