Can i use abuterol with lung cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you are experiencing bronchi constriction as in asthma then yes use the albuterol 2 puffs every 4-6 hours . However if you have lung cancer and short of breath beyond your normal amount I would see your MD to make sure its not a lung issue
