Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern. Ventorlin and Prednisone are used for treating asthma. These can produce dizziness and giddiness.
ZPac can produce arrhythmias of the heart rarely.
Black outs can be caused by decreased blood flow to the brain due to various reasons like heart arrhythmia and it would be better if you see your doctor, have yourself examined and investigated.
