albuterol

Baby D has congestion so the Pedi precribed a liquid albuterol for her. I've only ever heard of the breathing treatments, never liquid. Have any of you ever had any experience with this medicine? I hear it makes them sleepless

Re: albuterol

  • I have never heard of that. We are doing the breathing treatments with it now and it doesn't make her "sleepless" but it does make her fussy for a little while, but she's been sleeping fine at night.

  • We do a nebulizer as well. I asked the dr. about this because if I take albuterol it makes me shaky and hard to sleep but the dr. reassured me this doesn't happen to babies. I'm not sure why.

  • My husband was on lots of asthma meds as a child, was hospitalized for it, etc. He said that he has MANY sleepless nights due to the meds.

    But our pedi assured us that the meds for children's asthma are a lot better now. Maybe get a second opinion?
