Nebulized albuterol delivery is associated with decreased skeletal muscle strength in comparison with metered‐dose inhaler delivery among children with acute asthma exacerbations
OBJECTIVE: Albuterol is a β2‐agonist and causes an intracellular shift of potassium from the interstitium. Whole‐body hypokalemia is known to cause skeletal muscle weakness, but whether this occurs as a result of hypokalemia from the intracellular shift during albuterol treatment is unknown. We soug...
