Yes, the Neb version will make you nervous and jittery. Sometimes I almost get a paranoid feeling, but that's only every now and then. <br><br>

As for doing the neb version before HTS, I would say YES! Do the albuterol before the saline. Sometimes I do the albuterol and then HTS right after. However, I find that if I do the albuterol neb and then wait a few minutes, the HTS seems to do better and I don't get as tight and the HTS seems to go down better.<br><br>

Also, if the HTS is too strong and it's hard to take (some days it's just harsher than others), you can cut it with a little bit of the Albuterol to make it more tolerable. <br><br>

Enjoy your Nebs!

I do my HTS right after the albuterol. It takes me about 15 minutes to do my albuterol neb - I think it depends on what kind of compressor you have and what type of nebulizer, but it takes me a bit longer because I use my vest at the same time and I stop to cough up junk, etc. If I just did the alb neb straight through with no stopping, it'd probably take 8 minutes.

As far as the HTS - I have never heard of cutting it with a little albuterol. I mix my own, so if it seems too strong, I put in a little more of the 3% which dilutes it better.

One more thing to clarify...the albuterol makes some people shaky and nervous, but not everyone. I don't notice anything like that personally, but it is a known possible side effect so that's why I mentioned it.
