Wait time between nebulizing Albuterol and Saline

I have a question for Sue or anyone else who nebulizes 7% saline AFTER two or three puffs of the albuterol inhaler, do you find it works just as well as the nebulized albuterol? I would think the saline would wash away the albuterol powder. Please reply. Thank-you.

Yes, indeed, it works just fine for me.
The albuterol inhaler is a mist, and once it penetrates into the lungs, I don't think it washes away.
