In an asthma exacerbation and have been using proair rescue inhaler. my hr is already a bit high (108-113) so the proair makes it worse. how long should the palpitations last for? mine last over 30 min. had a steroid shot today & starting prednisone

Contact doctor again: If you have rec'd a steroid shot and taking prednisone as well, these alone can make you heart go fast. But if you are still having breathing problem, you need to go to the ER instead of relying on ProAir more than once every 4 hrs . In the meanwhile, avoid caffeine,
