Could My Albuterol Inhaler Be Causing This? Posted: 03-16-07 14:27pm
ive been using my albuterol inhaler almost
every day for 2 years its only thing i
have for my asthma i know i need something
to get it under control and not just a
rescue inhaler.i havnt had a problem it
always helped once i used it..but about 6
weeks ago i started getting tightness in
my chest a little bit after the tightness
went away i wasnt wheezing or having any
breathing problems for like 3 weeks which
is the longest ive gone without any
problem in 2 years..then i started
wheezing again and have some problems so i
started using my inhaler again now about 2
weeks after using it again i have
tightness in my chest again.sometimes i
might use it more then i should but i have
no alternative right now its all i got
with no insurance i cant get anything
right now to get it under control so is it
at all possible that the albuterol inhaler
is causing the tightness in my chest i
havtn used it in 2 days since an attack i
had and i got the tightness still

i don't understand your post completely.
do yu have these problems when you .don't
use the inhalor? My son has asthma and he
takes his flovent daily to prevent an
attack. Maybe you need to check into
control meds. I'm not too informed about
albuterol so I'm not sure what it is used
for. control or for an attack?
