A member asked:
How long does it take bronchitis with cough induced asthma to improve? albuterol nebs 4xday. only better with lots of treatments. is that good or bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad: When things are that bad, albuterol is not enough, you need a controller inhaler that has steroids and depending how bad things are, you may need oral steroids. Plus excess albuterol will worsen your atrial fibrillation. Call you doctor and get treated adequately.
