I don't tolerate albuterol either. It makes me crazy. When I switched from 3% saline to 7%, my doc wanted me to add albuterol but when I told him it made me upset and shaky, he switched it to generic for xopenex. I take two puffs of before using the saline.

@kayekuz, Hello there. I have never tried the aerobika although mu doc has prescribed it. I haven't ordered one because I have no trouble getting stuff up after I neb the saline. My question is: can the aerobika be used without nebulizing the vials of albuterol and/or saline? Or can it be used by itself?
Yes, Terri – the Aerobika can be used alone or with the neb. I too only use it if I feel congested – the saline alone is usually enough to get me hacking. Oops, that reminds me – I need to go find another neb cup – I washed the impeller from mine down the drain…

Hi Terri – I was told that it was the same gas that was used to kill people during the Vietnam War – very scary
