A member asked:
How would salbutamol cause myocardial ischemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rare : This is due to the fact that this is a beta agonist drug that increase myocardial Contractility as one of the main central effects. Too much medication will cause ischemia in the heart muscle from overwork, but as I mentioned above, only happens at high doses, and is a rare event
