anyone on terbutaline?

Just wondering if it gives you awful headaches.  I am confessing that I took my dose last night around 5:30 and ended up in bed for the duration of the evening with a mindblowing headache and since i haven't taken it I don't have my headache anymore.  I don't want christmas eve to be ruined by mommy in bed and out of commission because of headaches and I'm not sure i can handle much of that kind of pain.  Just wondering if anyone had that problem and if there is anything they can switch you to?  I haven't noticed any contractions being off it though.

    I had the same problem when I first started taking Terbutaline. I have been on it since about 32 weeks and it took a couple days of taking it for the headaches and shakes to ease off.  I noticed when I would eat before I took it those side effects where more bearable. Sorry I don't have a remedy to make it go away completely but just try and eat when you take it and drink lots of water! I hope this helps! Good luck

    Lol Yep it does.  Its actually a asthma medication but they have found it calms the muscles that contract.  Makes me wonder if your kitty had headaches and shakes hee hee!
