Albuterol: Assuming you mean for asthma treatment. Depending on age, usually kids will be prescribed 1-2 uffs by inhaler every 4-6 hrs. Albuterol is a type of beta-agonist. It acts by activating beta receptors in lungs which results in dilation and easier breathing. Please speak with your physician about actual dosing for your child.

From the question, it is not clear that the med is needed.Amount and timing varies with need. You are welcome to start over. Questions are never linked and we have no access to uploads.
