asthma, acute
"My Xopenex HFA works very well for me.  No side effects since I started using it.  Works quickly for me. I started with an inhaler called Alupent which worked very well with no side effects.  Then the powers that be no longer made this inhaler.  I was then put on Albuterol which had very bad side effects for me. I had told the pharmacist & my doctor about my bad reaction to albuterol & they had told me it was a normal thing to have a slight tremor!  When I went into the hospital for acute bronchitis, they gave me albuterol which caused me to shake so badly that my feet were bouncing on the bed.  The med staff saw this so they could not say "Oh, you just had a tremor, which is normal!"  Hence my doctor's nurse found Xopenex HFA for me!"
