ventolin (salbutamol)

[the nature boy]

like every other drug, delivery is affected by how the liver breaks down the compound.

Get the Ventolin capsules and you can inhale the powder. One side of the cap is longer than the other. You simply slide the short side off...hold by your mouth....and inhale the powder by sucking air quickly into your mouth.

The aerosol inhalers are not consistant.

how about just swallowing a pill?

No offense, but that is ridiculous. The inahled is a pretty well measured dose. This sounds like a good way to cough up a lung. like Lumberg said, the inhaler will do nothing but help you breathe.

I have been taking oral albuterol for the last 5 months. I am a life long asthmatic. I switched to the pills from inhaler because i thought it might be similar in effect to clen. They are DR (US) precribed. Contradictory to what lumberg said, they are Still made and all. I have both 4 mg and 2 mg tabs. I take 4mg 3x a day. Great results. I have developed a tolerance but I dont take anytime off. Like I said, I need them to breathe. Just recently added clen to that. Clen seems dirtier. Gives me a headache.

If you want a doctor to prescribe them. you have to know what their purpose is. These are not supposed to be taken reguarly, only when asthmam acts up. You have to fake like you have a lot of attacks, you are on a preventitive like theophylinne, and you need something stronger then the inhaler for "rescue". Go see a doc in the box. Or you can just say you have been on them for awhile and you are out. You just moved in to town etc etc etc.

Actually...I've been doing it since 93. I used the old Yellow canister inhalers like Proventil and this method using the powdered Ventolin caps works better.

I thought it was dumb until someone showed me. It cleared my asthma much better and I rarely use the stuff anymore. The canisters have aerosol to propel the medication and the aerosols are not worth it.
