Bleeding with Levalbuterol nebulizing

Apparently Levobuterol can cause bleeding as a side effect. Have you tried nebulizing with only saline 3%? And you are just supposed to breath normally while you nebulize. Maybe let things settle down and try again with just the saline sometime?

Interesting, Irene! I had not heard that this was one of the side effects. I’ll have to google that and inform people in another forum who don’t know that. Big thanks for letting me know! As I just said to Liliana, I’m going to give my poor little lungs some time to recover from this. And not be so extreme in my efforts next time. Excellent advice. 💛

Irene, where did you read this? I brought it up in a different forum and someone contested that this was the case. My experience is that it did, but it would be great to find a study that found that. All I saw was that Mayo Clinic lists bleeding as a rarer side effect: nose bleeds, heavier menstruation, blood in urine. Thank you for your good suggestion. I really need a good while for this to settle down but that is exactly what I hope to try.
