:?: Back to Back Albuterol In Neb = wired? How to sleep ?
Posted: 10-18-07 20:49pm

Question I had a bad attack yesterday and did a neb treatment, didn't raise peak flows anymore, so I called the on call doc in my practice and he said, do another one or two and that should help. Holy Smokes. I've been awake for 36 hours and counting. I did go to the ER and they gave me something by neb that worked a little but I'm still awake. I don't do drugs or anything like this. The doc warned me that the albuterol may make me a little awake and raise my heart rate but this is ridiculous! Any suggestions on falling asleep!?

Are you suffering from asthma?
Did you have an episode of extreme breathing difficulty before getting nab treatment?
Are you taking some other medicines?
Do you have problems with your heart?
Do you know that albuterol inhalation sometimes causes wheezing and difficulty breathing immediately after it is inhaled?
Are you aware that difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep are symptoms of overdose with albuterol?
