Has any adult taken albuterol cough syrup for asthma

[afierros]

I was wondering if albterol cough syrup might help with my coughing and breathing.  I am not a fan of inhalers nor do I like taking pills.  Today has been horrible, everytime I open my mouth to talk I cough.  I don't feel weezy it's a lot of coughing.  I have been extremely busy so that bring about the coughing.  I wanted to see if my doctor would call in a prescription for the cough syrup but I wanted to see if maybe someone could give me advise to what you think.

Actually, there are a couple of syrup bronchodilators available.  Albuterol, Theophylline, and Alupent (Metaproterenol) are all available in a syrup.

Another option would be to try some Guaifenesin.  It is available over the counter, and may help your coughing.  There is likely to be a liquid version available, but I'd recommend asking your doctor about it first.  Good luck!  I hope you feel better!

Hi, I'm a mom to two asthmatics and not a professional, but I don't see why your Doctor wouldn't give you the liquid.  However, he may require an office visit to be certain all is okay .. just my 2 cents.

Let us know how you make out and keep in touch.
