Can pro-air inhaler cause heart to pump faster and jitterness?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: The active ingrediant in pro-air is albuterol. There are multiple side effects associated with this drug including jitteriness and fast heart rates. Discuss with your doctor about adjusting the dosage or another changing medications if side effects are bothersome.

Yes: Any of the beta agonists (even the "b2-selective" ones), can have some cardiac effects. Usually they are short-lived (xopenex, albuterol, proventil, adrenalin) compared to the respiratory symptom relief.
