Here is Mr. Mathews who used Albuterol inhaler for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Hello friends my name is William Matthews and I was a mining engineer. In the initial days of my career I have to work in coal mines for long hours. I got affected with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Heavy coughs and Bronchospasm became a part of my life. I tried various medicines but to no avail. One of my colleagues took me to his health care provider and I was recommended Albuterol generic inhaler. I used the inhaler and after few weeks the response of the medicine was outstanding. The best part of using Albuterol generic inhaler is after puffing it there is a major relief in the bronchial smooth muscles after five minutes. I am really satisfied with the results and can say that it is a fabulous bronchodilator. One of my friends was recently diagnosed with Bronchospasm prophylaxis and he is prescribed Albuterol sulfate generic. He is using Albuterol generic sulfate and there has been a considerable improvement in his condition.

The efficacy and response of the medicine is commendable. It is prominent for the patients to discuss their medical condition with the doctor before using the drug. The side effects of Albuterol are minimal but overdose could lead to serious side effects. The patients are advised to check the dose mentioned in the prescription label.
