Is it ok to use an inhaler for albuterol pre cardio workout if you don't have asthma?

No effect: A person without asthma who uses an albuterol inhaler will not experience any respiratory benefit. However, that person would likely experience the common side effects such as tremor, increase heart rate and other symptoms.

No: Albuterol increases the heart rate. It might cause irregular heart beat. It is not advised to use it without a medical indication.
