My doc thinks I might have asthma, so he prescribed me an inhaler with abutreol. So I puffed some of this shit and the shit made me hella nervous and shakey and shit. I felt all amped up, so much to the point that when i was in my car at a red light I got all irritable and stressed. Then my heart beat felt like I had just ran a marathon. So I get home and my grandma trys talking to me, and I almost snapped, I didnt want anybody to talk to me because it was irritating. My breathing was hella fast and shallow, and I was getting dizzy. All of this dissapeared in about 45 minutes.

I guess my question is, is this normal for a first time user? Do you get this way when you puff the inhaler?

You'll get used to it. I don't remember the first time I hit the inhaler cause I was just a youngsta. Try to only use it when you have to.

Uh thats some crazy shit. I get bad ass asthma during allergy season, the inhaler never did that to me before. I hate the taste of it though. Maybe you should ask your doctor if thats normal. Did he tell you any side effects at all?

thats pretty normal id say...especially for a first time user.....i been had asthma since i was hella young homie

i barely ever use an inhaler though...i hate those things....i use a nebulizer...with the diluted abluterol sulfate solution u know those breathin treatment things they give u at the hospital but i got one at home an also a portable one i can take with if i go on a trip or somethin

i use it for like 5 minutes before i go out an run or somethin an im pretty str8

That's pretty normal...I usually only get reactions like that when I take my albuterol tablets...

I use both...the inhaler is for quick relief, but I take the pills before a workout...I don't remember my first reaction to it...

but with the pills I get the accelerated heart rate, and jumpiness...
