[|Human|] Hi, I have 8 years old boy, he is having asthma since he was 2 years old.Is albuterol sulfate inhaler has side effects? Also my husband is having hypertension, which is very common in his family. using asthma drug in long term can cause hypertension ?
[|AI|]  Hi... There are certainly good management therapies in allopatry nowadays. Medicine has advanced a lot and not asthma is 100% controllable. Inhalers are the newest management strategies for this. Albuterols side effects include - tremor, nervousness, low potassium, high blood pressure (but this is a rare side effect) and as such Albuterol is a safe Chat Doctor.  If asthma is not controlled with Albuterol - I suggest you start Inhaled corticosteroids rather than only Albuterol. Regards -
