Thumbs down Albuterol

I take quite a few asthma medications but Albuterol seems to be the one I have the most side effects with. After using the inhalor my hands and legs shake for about an hour. Is this a normal side effect?

How many puffs are you taking?

It doesn't sound right to me, so you should definitely tell your doctor.

The same thing happens to me. Dr. says it is "normal". Doesn't feel normal, does it?
