I use albuterol because of asthma. I always have to use it a little bit more than prescribed because it just does not work for me when I take 2 puffs. I do not experience any side effects common for overdosing. I’ve been using antiasthmatics for last 6 months. Is it too much albuterol? I’ve started being concerned about my dose.

Well as I know antiasthmatics are very powerful medications. They are also not free of side effects, as you know too. I think that you should contact your physician and have some more exams to get proper adjusted dose that would be safe and effective for you. If I were you I’d avoid increasing dose of such a drug like albuterol. I know that it can cause extremely high blood pressure and tachycardia. Too much, means more than prescribed.
