I got no further instructions , I was so overwhelmed I forgot to ask him . Please could I get some ideas . Thank you

My understanding is that it is advisable to wait 10mins after taking the albuterol before nebbing to allow the medicine to open up the airways.

@petry That is so common, "so overwhelmed. "
I don't use albutorol but it is my understanding that it is to help open the airways before you nebulize. With things like this, especially if needing information quickly from good websites like Mayo or Cleveland Clinic or the company that makes the albutorol could help with the information, I would think.
You will probably have a reply shortly from those who use it.
