Ed,
Can you provide me with a link/reference for this information? I must say, if you are right, then I'm off to request Parnate ASAP!
I take fluticasone and albuterol. I'm not worried about the fluticasone - it's very 'clean' and not hardly absorbed in the bloodstream - but the albuterol can be.
BTW anyone know about inhaled l-amphetamine? The stuff in the Vick's inhalers? (It's used for nasal congestion but it came to mind.)
Thanks
