Has anyone had serious side effects from using Terbutaline 1mg/ml Injections for severe asthma attacks?
I've recently been prescribed Terbutaline 1mg/ml Inj, 1ml for severe asthma attacks. It's been a lifesaver, but I'm curious to know if anyone has experienced any of the serious side effects listed, like high blood pressure, low potassium levels, or even seizures. I know these are rare, but it's always good to be informed. I've also noticed some minor side effects like feeling a bit nervous or restless, but nothing too concerning. Just wanting to hear some real-life experiences and tips on managing any side effects that might come up.

Have you tried using a spacer with your inhaler? It might help with the nervousness and shakes. It's supposed to make the medicine go straight to your lungs and bypass some of those other effects you're experiencing. Worth a shot if you're feeling too jittery.
I had a terrible experience with this. Lots of sweating, nausea and dizziness. Ended up in the ER. They switched me to a different inhaler, and I've been fine since. This one just wasn't for me, I guess.
I've had anxious feelings when Ive used this, but other than that, it's been a lifesaver. My breathing improved dramatically. But yeah, definitely keep an eye out for anything unusual. Seek help right away if something doesn't feel right.
I’ve been using this for over a year now with no issues. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. That said, I've always been a bit of a hypochondriac, so I've been extra cautious about monitoring my heart rate and blood pressure, too. Calling my doctor a lot has left me feeling a bit better.
I've been on terbutaline for a couple of years, and while I've had some shakiness, it's never been bad enough to stop using it. And I love that they have a concentrated version. If anyone experiences any untoward effects on this stuff, the best thing to do is to just call a doctor. Wouldn't wait on that.
