Beaky, I just thought I would let you know I also have asthma and am on albuterol, only in an inhaler form (I used to have a nebulizer though). I've never experienced something like what you have described though, even when at my highest and used my inhaler. Also, marijuana seems to have a good effect on my asthma. I notice after a smoking session that my lungs are clearer and I can take much deeper breaths. I guess it's different from person to person. How severe is your asthma anyway?

I do know albuterol has a history of causing a calcium depletion in the body, which could lead to osteoporosis. That's really the only harmful thing I know about it. I can do some research and let you know if I find anything out though. Take care!
