What causes chills and sweating post Ventolin intake?
Patient: i have just started using ventilin several times a day as I was getting a bit breathless  I am now getting very cold and starting to shake I have taken Advil  and after about an hour or so break out in huge sweats for about an hour  It has been happening couple of times thru the day and night also feel a bit lethargic for the last four days.  I have seen a doctor and was sent off to emergency. My heart, blood pressure was good   It was the hospital suggested I use ventilin. why would I be shivering and sweating many thanks Doctor: Hi i do care for your concern. The drug ventolin stimulates something called beta adrenergic receptors, which in some case will cause increased sweating, increased heart rate and so on. I would advise to consult your physician and change to other drugs such as budesonide that will help you overcome this situation. Advil has no role to play here. Hope i have answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask. Thank you.
