My doctor prescribed Asmol CFCS Inhaler as I suffered from Acute Bronchitis. I am 75 yrs old and occasionally suffer from leg cramps. However yesterday I suffered a lot of cramps in my arms, hands and fingers. could this have something to do with the Inhaler. I have used it for 2 days, without much effect. Also for how long is Acute Bronchitis contagious, I have no fever anymore, just a lot of coughing but no secondary infection. Thank you very much for your time and assistance. Konrad
Hello, Asmol contains Albuterol which can cause muscle tremors. So your muscle cramp may be due to the side effects of ASML. If you're not able to tolerate then consult your doctor and get your prescription changed accordingly. Secondly in bronchitis there is inflammation and constrictions of the airway. ASML helps to dilate the airway and easier your breath. I would advise my patient to take ASML at least for 2 weeks and review his chest signs and symptoms before stopping ASML.
